Teslas are at or very near the bottom of often stolen car lists, by a wide margin.

    Now hear me out, do you think that might have something to do with their market share relative to ALL other cars on the road?

    When a KIA gets stolen, the owner will likely get it back, although probably a lot more worse for wear.

    Thieves using relay attacks are most likely part of, or connected to, professional auto theft groups e.g. chop shops, overseas car markets, etc.
