The Most-Stolen Cars


The Most-Stolen Cars

To determine the vehicles with the highest theft rates in the country, the Highway Data Loss Institute looked at only insured passenger vehicles between one and three years old. Then they calculated which insurance claims were filed for each particular model of vehicle, and the size of the payment for each claim. By comparing the number of claims to the number of cars insured, the process indicates vehicles most likely to be targets of theft, because it takes into account a given model’s total exposure to the road.

The average claim frequency for all passenger vehicles is 2.1 claims per 1,000 insured vehicle years, with an average loss payment of $6,883 per claim. Insured vehicle years are measured as one vehicle insured for one year or two of the same vehicle insured for six months each.
