Autel IM508 and IM608 are immobilizer key programmers, KM100 is a key generator/copy machine.

The Android-based touch screen autel key tool comes with 2 blank keys for you to use at your convenience. One has the Autel logo on the back and the other does not.

KM100 contains MaxiVCI VCI200 so you can perform key simulation and key learning after generating a key.

It uses the USB cable to transfer data from another device, such as IM608, to a laptop and from the laptop to the key tool.

Autel KM100 is pre-order now and still be available at the beginning of April 2022.

BTW: Autel is coming out with its own aftermarket keys and will require it to program them.
