2016 RX Smart Card?

Anyone know if they make one for the 2016 RX? I know they made it for the 2015 RC and NX so you would think 2016 would be no different. Anyone? Thanks in advance.

Hopefully within a few months Lexus will add it to their catalog.

Why wouldn't a guy just put it in his wallet and never worry about a fob?

The smart card should come standard on every high end lexus sold. Not alot of people know that this feature is available.

The problem is that Lexus doesn't make it for the new RX, but does for every other vehicle they make.

I feel like this thread comes up on each forum when a model is redesigned. Just give Lexus a few more months. It's usually available when the second model year is released.

Any chance there is a part number on it? Ill try to call a local dealer if you can provide it.

I am afraid there isn't any part number printed on the key.

I'll be honest, I never heard of such a thing. Now that I know what it is though I'd definitely be interested. Sounds like something they should advertise more as I'm sure there's a lot of people that didn't even know it was available.
