Last year the number of car thefts tripled compared to 2022. It is true that these statistics take into account only cars insured under CASCO with the Rosgosstrakh company.
According to the data, in 2023 car thieves were most interested in ‘Koreans’ and ‘Japanese’ – Hyundai and Kia, Toyota and Lexus. Renault and Skoda close the top five preferences of car thieves with equal indicators. Among the most popular models among criminals are Kia Optima/K5 and Hyundai Santa Fe, each accounting for 10% of thefts. In third place is Toyota Camry (5%).
Most cars were stolen in Moscow and the Moscow region – about a third of all registered cases. After the capital regions come Saint Petersburg and the Leningrad region (10%), the Tver and Yaroslavl regions (7% each). Bandits were most active in February and October: these months accounted for 12.5% of crimes.
The insurance company noted that, against the background of the rapid increase in prices for spare parts and paint, car owners consider it more relevant to insure the risks of serious damage or “total” damage, but that theft should not be excluded either.
