Key Differences
1.Chip Coverage: VVDI Super Chip XT57B supports a wider range of immobilizer systems, including
- 5C MQB49
- MQB48 Jeep Renegade and 5 Generation transponder types
- 4A for Peugeot, Citroen, Dongfeng, Venuci, Renault, Buick, and Chevrolet
XT27A lacks these newer capabilities.
2.Suitability: VVDI Super Chip XT27A is best suited for older vehicles, whereas XT57B future-proofs your inventory for modern key programming.
3.Functionality: Both are rewritable and reusable. Both allow you to set or reset the transponder type using Xhorse App via devices like Key Tool Plus or VVDI Key Tool Max Pro.
4.Reliability: XT57B features enhanced stability and higher capacity memory to handle complex protocols that previous super chips struggled with.
