Unlock Your Tata.ev with a Tap: India’s First OEM Embraces Apple Wallet Car Key

Imagine leaving your car keys at home and unlocking or starting your Tata.ev with just your iPhone or Apple Watch. That futuristic convenience is now a reality, as Tata.ev proudly integrates Apple Wallet Car Key ushering in a new era of digital car access in India.

Announced during Apple’s highly anticipated Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025, this breakthrough puts Tata.ev among a select group of over 20 global automakers supporting the Apple Wallet Car Key. As Apple’s Kathy Lin emphasized, this milestone signals Tata.ev’s leap into next-gen mobility.

How It Works: Seamless Entry and Stronger Security

Unlocking or starting your Tata.ev is now effortless. Simply bring your iPhone or Apple Watch near the car’s NFC sensor, or rely on Ultra-Wideband (UWB) for automatic proximity-based access and engine start.

Behind this convenience lies robust security. The digital car key is stored securely in your device’s Secure Element chip. Access is gated by Face ID or your device passcode, ensuring that only authorized users can operate the vehicle.

Share Access, Stay in Control

Beyond personal use, Apple Wallet Car Key offers unmatched flexibility. Want to share your car with a friend or family member? You can send them a temporary key via iMessage, complete with usage restrictions.

Worried about losing your phone? Don’t be. If your device is lost or stolen, you can remotely revoke key access through iCloud or Apple’s Find My app, maintaining full control and security.

Driving Towards a Smarter, Connected Future

This digital-first initiative puts Tata.ev at the forefront of automotive innovation in India, aligning with global trends in mobility-as-a-service and connected car ecosystems. With this rollout, Tata.ev delivers an integrated, secure, and forward-thinking driving experience.

Tata.ev’s Apple Wallet Car Key support isn’t just a tech upgrade, it’s a vision of the future now available to Indian drivers.
