Systems and methods to manage and document user access to a set of vehicles in a vehicle dealership or fleet setting are provided. In one aspect, a dongle device is uniquely installed in each vehicle. The dongle communicates with a vehicle's controller to allow vehicle access. A user interacts with the dongle through a portable electronic device. The dongle is uniquely and permanently coded, by way of the VIN for example, to a particular vehicle. The user communicates at least some of the VIN to the dongle to request vehicle access. Vehicle access and other data associated with accessed vehicles are recorded as subject to terms and conditions established and maintained through a central database. Vehicle access data, such as vehicle access timings, allow a dealership to assess business operational data, such as salesperson vehicle access tempo and breadth, and buyer interest in vehicles or groups of vehicles.
