The automobiles that are most often stolen in 2010 has been released by National Institute for Highway Safety partner the Highway Loss Data Institute. By comparing the number of insured vehicles on the road to the number of theft claims, HLDI creates the most-stolen list. Though pickups are victimized increasingly more often, the Cadillac Escalade nevertheless tops the list. The number of theft claims have declined, though the amount paid out has been rising.
10. Corvette Z06 by Chevy
Though it is attractive and has a big engine, this auto is stolen 1.7 times for every 1,000 cars. Insurance corporations are skittish about this automobile, though, because it costs them over $ 41,000 each time a claim is paid.
