The desire for Luxury Contactless Car Rentals is rapidly increasing. Premium travelers demand not only a high-end vehicle—like a Mercedes, BMW, or Porsche—but also a friction-free experience that respects their time. Consequently, keyless pickup has become the standard for luxury fleets, eliminating the lengthy administrative processes traditionally associated with high-value rentals.

Here are the top services providing premium vehicles with true keyless or highly digitized pickup options.

1. Traditional Premium Brands Embracing Digital

Major corporate rental companies offer digital check-in and premium programs that minimize, if not entirely eliminate, counter interaction.

  • SIXT: Known for its Premium/Luxury Focus, SIXT provides an app for booking and managing rentals. They offer special privileges for premium cardholders and are known for a digital check-in experience and premium fleet options.

  • Hertz: Offers a range of luxury car rentals, including Prestige Sedans and Dream cars like the Porsche Panamera. Their Gold Plus Rewards system allows members to skip the counter and use advanced app features for seamless vehicle access and management.

  • Avis: Features the Avis Signature Series, offering elite luxury vehicles. Avis offers programs that expedite the rental process, and some luxury models include remote start and passive keyless entry features.

2. Digital-First Platforms Specializing in Premium Access

Some services are built entirely on the Luxury Contactless Car Rentals model, using only a smartphone app for access to high-end vehicles.

  • Virtuo: This service is $100 app-based and features a luxury fleet including Mercedes, BMW, and Tesla models. Customers book and unlock all with the app, offering a truly contactless experience with no waiting at rental counters.

  • OK Mobility: Offers a “Keyless car rental” service where the process is $100\%$ digital. Customers sign the contract online and then unlock the vehicle with their phone. This is currently available in select locations.

The Technology: How Luxury Goes Keyless

For premium vehicles, keyless access technology must be reliable and highly secure. The digital key ensures both.

  • App-Controlled Unlock: The renter’s smartphone acts as the key, communicating with the vehicle’s control unit to unlock the doors and enable passive start.

  • Protection Against Digital Theft: Luxury vehicles often feature advanced security like Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology for protection against relay attacks. This confirms the physical proximity of the key to the vehicle.

  • Personalization: The keyless system can also trigger customized settings, such as mirror and seat positions, as soon as the driver enters the vehicle.
