Abstract

A vehicle has a remote control key that includes a biometric sensor configured to recognize a user's bio-information, a key communication module configured to perform wireless communication with a vehicle, and at least one function button configured to control an operation of the vehicle through wireless communication with the vehicle. The vehicle also has a vehicle controller configured to compare bio-information transferred from the remote control key with bio-information stored in a server or with bio-information stored in a vehicle memory and determine whether the bio-information transferred from the remote control key is matched with the bio-information stored in the server or with the bio-information stored in the vehicle memory, the vehicle controller being configured to selectively perform a function corresponding to a control signal of the function button transmitted from the remote control key.
