Interesting ... thanks for posting

Apple last week updated an Apple Pencil support document with a note warning users that charging a second-generation version of the stylus on a compatible iPad Pro might interfere with signals from nearby key fobs, preventing users from opening their car door.

Travel with my iPad Pro and Apple Pencil 2 everyday. Never have had an issue with my keyless go.

Quote from article:
Inductive charging systems like those employed by Apple to charge Apple Watch and Apple Pencil, as well as wireless charging standards including Qi, rely on electromagnetic fields to provide power to electronic devices.

Looks like apple watch and pencil 2 uses similar type of Qi charging, compared to the phone like 8 or more.
