Car models facing highest theft risk

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that an emerging report had shown the car models with the highest risk of theft.

Conboy Law Injury & Medical Malpractice Lawyers, a US-based legal firm, said it analysed annual vehicle theft reports and manufacturer sales records for 25 popular models to reach its conclusion that the Hyundai Sonata is the most theft-vulnerable car.

With an annual theft number of 42.8k, it is the highest recorded and highlights a significant challenge in theft prevention for this popular car. The Hyundai Elantra came in second with a theft-vulnerability rate of 154.
