I'm assuming vehicle security system would operate similarly, to prevent possible misuse or auto theft.
iOS 14 will have "Approximate Location" that apps will determine your location approximately by a 10 square miles in size.

The current android BMW digital key works via NFC, with the new approximate location no way that GPS will be used for precise location- NFC and U1 chip.
