Can a new key be made if the electric car key is lost without a spare?

It is not recommended to make a new key if the electric car key is lost; it is safer to replace the lock directly. Here are the relevant details: Disabling the key: If all car remote keys are lost, you should immediately go to a 4S store to disable the lost car keys and then have a new key made. Keeping the key safe: When using the car, always keep the key secure and leave a spare key at home as a backup. Do not carry all keys with you, as this increases the risk of losing them all. Unlocking: You can contact a professional locksmith to unlock the car and then go to a 4S store to have a new key made. However, relevant documents such as ID and vehicle registration are required. If the vehicle registration is not available, you will need to file a report at the local police station. Even after obtaining a new key, be cautious about not leaving valuables in the car. The lock button not only locks the car but also has an alarm function. Pressing the lock button for 5 seconds can disable the electric car alarm, while the locking function remains active.
