Security System & Immobilizer

Kia’s keys track Hyundai’s architecture — ID46 transponder and flip-key era, then Hitag3 ID47 smart keys.

On the Seltos specifically we see: NXP Hitag-AES ID6A (8A). A correctly cut but unprogrammed key turns the locks and never starts the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

I lost the only key to my Seltos. What now?

We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site — no tow, no dealer wait.

My Seltos is push-to-start — can you program that outside the dealer?

Yes. Late models (2021–2025) use a proximity smart key on NXP Hitag-AES ID6A (8A) — we carry the fobs and the programmer, and we cut the emergency blade.
