In the end I guess it is not that big of a deal, if you have to install an app or if it is native, aside from being more seamless and being able to use Messages to text a key to someone without the app.

It's covered vaguely here: https://carconnectivity.org/press-re...-key-solution/

1.0 may be what our cars have

2.0 supports “dead” phones, ie enough power to use nfc but not boot

3.0 is UWB/btle to enable precision location, allowing you to leave your phone in your pocket/purse, which is apparently what 90% of the people complaining on here fail to understand
