Do you drive a Honda CR-V, Lexus RX or a Ford F-150 pickup truck? More than any other vehicles on the road, those are being stolen and sent down the road to the Port of Montreal for shipment overseas, according to new insurance data.

The biggest increase was with the high-end Lexus RX Series, based on a comparison of the rate of vehicles stolen compared to the number insured and on the road. In 2021, 6.4 per cent of the 34,560 Lexus RX on the road were stolen.

Among the vehicles with the lowest number of thefts were Volvos, Infiniti and Tesla. Only two Teslas were stolen in 2021. Industry sources say some manufacturers, like Tesla, have numerous anti-theft devices in their vehicles. Usually between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m., the actual thief will show up, dropped off by another thief in a car.
