Where is the ignition keyhole of the Magotan?

The ignition keyhole of the Magotan is located on the left side of the DVD navigation system, where there is a round-shaped socket, which is the keyhole. Below is more information about the Volkswagen Magotan: 1. The Volkswagen Magotan originates from the Future B6, which is closely related to the Passat B6, and it is the first B-class sedan produced and sold by FAW-Volkswagen since its establishment. 2. In July 2016, the new generation Magotan, derived from the German eighth-generation B-class car, was officially launched. Built on the new MQB B platform, it is equipped with a series of intelligent technologies surpassing its peers, and several high-end configurations exclusive to C-class cars are introduced for the first time.
I've been driving the Magotan for quite a while. The keyhole is positioned on the right side of the steering column, easily reachable without having to look down—a very user-friendly design. My 2015 model still uses a traditional key ignition, with the keyhole located next to the instrument panel; just insert and twist to start the engine. Nowadays, newer versions mostly feature a push-button start system, with the keyhole either hidden or omitted entirely, eliminating the hassle of fumbling for the key and enhancing convenience. In case of a dead key battery or system malfunction, the backup keyhole might be under the center console, requiring a small cover to be opened. It's advisable to regularly check the battery and maintain the key. Overall, the Magotan's layout makes daily driving smoother, especially when parking at night, as you don't have to grope around, thereby improving safety.
