GMC (brand name) APPEARS - A logo on the steering wheel and potentially on the key card itself. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. Tesla (brand name) ACTS - The video mentions Tesla as a point of comparison for the key card feature. Removing it would change what happens in the video.
