Who needs keys when you can start your car with a flash drive? One of Mazda’s newest prototypes does exactly that by replacing the traditional key-based ignition with a USB flash drive. What’s more, the drive also has the more conventional flash drive functionality of transferring files (such as music) to the car’s hard drive.
Mazda states that they are aiming for young, tech-savvy demographic here. It looks like they are betting that younger buyers will not be as attached to the more tradition type of car key that more.
