A new location for the all-new Range Rover Smart Key Engine Start Backup

On previous models when there were issues between the smart key and the Range Rover, there was a location on the steering column where you could touch your key and often bypass the issues. Low smart key battery was a common cause.

For the all-new Range Rover that location has moved to the center console, in the cubby aft of the gearshift controls.
