Hello Cav91,
Really, maybe we're talking about different things then.
By proximity key I'm talking about a key-card that will work while it is in close proximity to the vehicle.
i.e. you can open the doors by putting your hand on the handle (or push the button on the taillgate) and start the car while the key-card is in your pocket. (Except when the card is used to lock the car then the card has to be used to unlock).
Moving a couple of metres away and locks and ignition won't function.
On the door handles, there are aerials fitted to the handle base that sense the proximity of the key and an IR sensor that detects your hand. I don't have to take the key-card out of my pocket (and rarely do) to open or start the car and rarely ever put the key-card in the slot on the console.
If that isn't a proximity key I'm keen to know what is.
I know the base model didn't have them (Expression?), and probably not on the Dynamique, but though all the top of the range types did or maybe it was an option on the Privilege types.
Cheers
