Old metal keys are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Now, some grades of the Kia Optima offer a Smart Key with a push button start, which can free up your key chain, as well as help stop all the now unnecessary juggling as you try and open your car. You can also remotely start your car, so no need to venture outside before you go off to work.
