The 10 Most Stolen Cars in America
Car theft remained a serious problem across the U.S. in 2024, with over 850,000 vehicles stolen. While that’s a drop from 2023’s peak, certain models were still far more likely to disappear from driveways and parking lots.

Let's take a closer look at the 10 most stolen cars in America last year. The data for this gallery comes from Finance Buzz.
10. Dodge Charger – 11,452 Stolen
The Dodge Charger saw 11,452 thefts in 2024. Its powerful engines and desirability in the used market made it a hot commodity for car thieves. This isn't the all-new electric-powered Dodge Charger.
9. Toyota Camry – 12,296 Stolen
The Toyota Camry, one of the most common cars on the road, remains a popular target with 12,296 thefts last year.
8. Ford F-150 – 12,952 Stolen
The Ford F-150 is the best-selling vehicle in America—and 12,952 thefts in 2024 prove that criminals also love the full-size truck for its parts and resale value.
7. Kia Soul – 13,562 Stolen
The quirky Kia Soul’s missing security features led to 13,562 thefts. Like the Optima, many Souls from the 2011-2021 model years lacked the electronic immobilizers needed to deter thieves.
6. Honda Civic – 15,727 Stolen
With 15,727 Civics stolen, this popular sedan continues its unfortunate tradition of landing in the top 10 year after year. Its widespread availability makes it easy prey for thieves.
5. Kia Optima – 17,493 Stolen
Another Hyundai-Kia group vehicle affected by the missing immobilizer issue, the Kia Optima suffered 17,493 thefts last year. Older models were particularly at risk.
4. Honda Accord – 18,539 Stolen
A longtime fixture on theft lists, the Honda Accord saw 18,539 thefts in 2024. Its ubiquity and the strong demand for Accord parts keep it high on criminals’ radar.
3. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 – 21,666 Stolen
The GM pickup is also a favorite among car thieves. With 21,666 Silverado 1500s stolen, its popularity and high resale value for parts make it a constant target.
2. Hyundai Sonata – 26,720 Stolen
The Hyundai Sonata saw 26,720 units stolen. The same missing immobilizer flaw plagued this model, leaving it vulnerable to thieves equipped with nothing more than a USB cable or basic tools.
1. Hyundai Elantra – 31,712 Stolen
The Hyundai Elantra topped the list with an alarming 31,712 thefts in 2024. Many older models (2011-2021) lack electronic engine immobilizers, a basic anti-theft feature standard in most modern cars. Viral videos demonstrated how easily these cars could be stolen, making them prime targets.
