Is it normal? I think, without the key inside vehicle, the vehicle should not move.

It is quite normal.
It will run without the key, but it will not start.
This is a safety feature, e.g., you don't want the engine to stop running while you are driving if that's the time the battery finally gives out and the comfort access quits working.
