Abstract (en)

The disclosure provides an electronic key for an automotive vehicle, comprising a housing (113) having an inside configured to house an emergency insert (118) and a battery (136), and a key head (100) configured to engage with the housing and to connect to the housing (113). The key head (100) is further configured to rotationally disconnect from the housing and then to translationally disengage from the housing (113), thereby providing access to the inside of the housing (113). The key head (100) is configured to disengage from the housing (113) only when the key head (100) is disconnected from the housing. This forms an improved electronic key for an automotive vehicle.
