The National Insurance Crime Bureau has released its car theft data from 2021, showing that the rate of stolen cars was up 8 percent from 2020.
Full-size pickup trucks were the most commonly stolen vehicles, with Chevrolet ousting Ford for the top spot in thefts for 2021, while economy sedans like Honda's Civic and Toyota's Camry trailed close behind. Recovering stolen cars can be a difficult process, but thefts reported within the first 24 hours have a 34 percent chance of recovery.
With record demand and strained supply chains, the automotive market is in a period of severe fluctuation. Manufacturers can't produce enough cars to meet the demand from dealerships, with cars being sold before they even reach the dealer. With new cars sparsely produced and often sold above , consumers fled to the used-vehicle market, where things haven't been much better in terms of options or price. This has led to a scarcity of choices for car buyers, but not necessarily for car thieves., we can see how this lack of supply has affected the world of automotive thieving. The results were a modest increase in theft, rising 8 percent year over year for 2021. However, the theft trends from 2021 included a major change to the cast of usual targets.
They were saying Hyundai and Kia were most stolen last week…
