VEHICLE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME

A vehicle configured for guiding an optimal digital key tag position to a digital key user and a method of controlling the vehicle may include a short-range communication module configured to receive a signal from a digital key within a preset distance ranging from the short-range communication module to the digital key; a lamp; and a controller connected to and configured to control the lamp and the short-range communication module based on a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of the received signal. The controller may be configured to determine a reference range based on the RSSI of the received signal in a first mode, to control the lamp to provide information related to a position of the digital key according to the RSSI of the received signal and the reference range in a second mode, and to control the short-range communication module to transmit a signal regarding the position of the digital key to the digital key in the second mode.
