The Highway Loss Data Institute, an affiliate of the
Insurance Institute of Highway Safety, has revealed the
Cadillac Escalade had the highest rate of
insurance theft claims for the fourth year in a row. About a quarter of the claims were for over $40,000, which means that thieves were often jacking the whole giant SUV instead of just pilfering it for parts. The actual data revealed that theft claims were issues for 13.2 out of every 1,000 units sold. The runner-up was the Mistubishi
Lancer Evo and then the
Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab. The least attractive vehicles in the eyes of thieves were the
Ford Taurus,
Pontiac Vibe,
Buick LeSabre and
Park Avenue.
