Swedish carmaker Volvo says it is developing a system to enable online shopping deliveries direct to customers' cars rather than their homes.
The company said it had created a single-use digital key, which postal or delivery services can use to locate a vehicle and open it.

The system "will allow consumers to have shopping delivered straight to their car, no matter where they are", said the company.
"Via a smartphone or a tablet, the owner will be informed when a delivery company wants to drop off or pick up something from the car," they added.
