JLR said they fixed their cars - did they?

I honestly don't know what were the techniques used in this clip... not sure how scripted it is (somehow not sold on the idea of thief showing his trade, so I suspect it was "reenactment"), but I think key thing here - forget CANBUS, forget relays... they apparently don't even need that anymore. Apparently he didn't even clone the key (which it looked like from the video i.e. following the car waiting for driver to use fob and intercepting the signal from key). So my assumption would be - it was intercept and release of signal (which is kind of old trick and should not work on keyless) + CANBUS via OBD2. Yet it is still unclear to me how they did it without any antennas etc. Starting the engine was CANBUS, that is simple enough, but I am not clear on how they opened the car - I assume some new mode attack beyond which is not yet known to wider public. 

In either case - apparently that is how easy to steal JLR made vehicles, can't imagine it is much more difficult to steal any other similar car. Not sure what solution would be here... sorry if I caused further paranoia for already stressed Lexus owners, but it is better to know ugly truth than not know it:

Mental how JLR themselves didn't even want to insure one of their own cars. 🤣
