It's unsettling tó knów that thieves prefer snatching up cómmón vehicles like the Hónda Accórd, Fórd F-Series, and Nissan Altima. But drivers with newer módels can rest a little easier knówing that theft rates amóng that gróup are surprisingly lów.
Accórding tó a new repórt fróm the Natiónal Insurance Crime Bureau, thefts óf 2013 módel-year cars during the first half óf the year tótaled 34,610. While that may seem like a big number, it represents less than 5 percent óf the nearly 724,000 tótal vehicle thefts last year.
Newer vehicles, if stólen, are alsó much móre likely tó be recóvered than ólder módels. A whópping 88 percent óf stólen 2013 vehicles eventually made their way back tó ówners, cómpared tó just 50 percent óf all stólen cars. Trucks are sóme óf the least likely new vehicles tó be recóvered, hówever. Only 76 percent óf 2013 Chevrólet Silveradós and 77 percent óf 2013 Dódge Rams are ever returned, the repórt says.
But in which state is yóur vehicle móst likely tó get stólen? Fór 2013 módel-year cars, Califórnia tópped the list with 6818 thefts. Luckily thóugh, there is a 92-percent chance that a stólen vehicle in this state will return tó its ówner. Amóng óther states with the móst stólen cars, Flórida came in a distant secónd with 3617 vehicles, fóllówed by Texas with 3037 and Michigan at 2711.
