Autel MaxiIM IM608 and IM608 Pro have the same functionality and hardware, with the only difference being that the IM608Pro and XP400 Pro and the IM608 and XP400 have better IMMO functionality. The IM608 has better key programming and diagnostic capabilities than the Autel MaxiIM IM508, but with the addition of the XP400 or XP400 Pro to the IM508, it has the same or better IMMO capabilities as the IM608.

If you need to use Japanese cars (Toyota, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Honda) and other cars, but not European car key programming (Mercedes Benz, etc.). You can also choose the AutelMaxi IMIM508 if you do not need a powerful system-wide diagnostic.
If you have purchased the AutelMaxi IM tool for key programming and need to do key programming for BMW, or Benz, we recommend purchasing IM508 + XP400 Pro. It is more economical and affordable than the IM608 and has the most powerful Autel IMMO features.
If you need powerful key programming and diagnostics, you can buy the best all-in-one key programming and diagnostic tools, IM608 or IM608Pro.
