The overall statistics of car thefts in 2015 across the entire territory of Russia amounted to 36,323 vehicles. This is slightly less than in 2014, when this figure was at the level of 39,253 cars. In monetary terms, this figure seems frightening - about 10 billion rubles!

What is the dynamics of demand for stolen cars? Let's analyze the trends in more detail: earlier they stole 39,352 cars, in 2015 they began to steal 36,323 cars, which is an 8% decline compared to last year. It would seem that the situation with the thefts has improved, but if you look in more detail at the structure of the brands of stolen cars, the picture turns out to be disappointing. Almost a third of thefts are accounted for by the domestic auto industry, the decrease in thefts of these cars compared to last year was 15%! And the decrease in theft of foreign cars, including those produced in Russia, was only 5%, and this is with a drop in sales of new cars by 38%, and used cars by 20%.

Thus, we see a significant increase in the specific number of thefts throughout the territory of Russia, i.e. the number of stolen cars relative to those sold. The increase in theft relative to the market is caused by an increase in the cost of spare parts, due to a sharp rise in the dollar exchange rate, as a result of which we have an increase in the number of car thefts "for analysis".

Car theft comparison 2014 and 2015:

TOP 20 most stolen car brands

As usual, the laurels of the championship in theft go to the domestic auto industry - lADA brand... This is directly related to the Russian vehicle fleet as a whole, where the dominant place is, of course, Zhiguli. This car is stolen both for parts and for the purpose of subsequent resale. The second place is taken by Toyota, it has not changed these positions for several years, Mazda is in the third place in terms of thefts, the number of thefts of these cars has hardly changed in comparison with 2014.

TOP 20 most stolen car models

Despite the decrease in the number of thefts, LADA still occupies the overwhelming number of places in the TOP 20 stolen models. The number of stolen Hyundai solaris (previously 779 cars were stolen, now 1034), as well as KIA RIO (from 580 to 887).

Theft statistics by model for 2015

Most car owners are aware that the more expensive and newer the vehicle, the higher the risk of theft of their car. For this reason, the owners, especially domestic productiondon't care too much about equipping their cars with anti-theft equipment. And it is completely in vain - in recent years, it is Lada who have been hijacked most often, if we summarize the number of such cases for all models. As a rule, they are dismantled almost immediately for the purpose of selling them at auto dismantlers, so there is almost no chance of returning the car. Well, expensive cars are hijacked by high-level professionals, so here, too, things are not so hot with the detection rate.

Risk group

There is a hierarchy in the field of auto theft. It should not be assumed that the hijackings are carried out on a whim. These are organized criminal groups that specialize in certain actions. The percentage of thefts committed by amateurs without material gain becomes less every year, since the detection rate of such thefts is relatively high.

Among the most stolen cars in Russia, as we have already noted, both budget and budget cars are found with the same frequency domestic carsand what newer car, the more likely it will interest hijackers.

But here you should take into account such a parameter as the likelihood of theft, which should not be confused with quantitative indicators. Let us explain with a simple example: if in 2019 100 toyota cars Land cruiser, of which 2 were stolen, this means that every fiftieth SUV did not live up to the next renewal of the insurance policy, that is, the frequency of theft is 2%.

Theft of two dozen Lada Priora cars with a significant number of them can give a much lower rate of theft frequency.

So if you want to evaluate how attractive your car is to intruders, pay attention to the frequency, not the quantitative parameter.

Finally, you need to understand that cheap cars are hijacked mainly for subsequent disassembly and sale in parts, and more expensive ones for resale. We have discussed how stolen vehicles are legalized in other articles. In any case, the chances of getting your car back are very small, so you just have to protect yourself as much as possible from such risks. We will tell you how to do this at the end of our review.

Rating of the most stolen cars in Russia in the first half of 2019

Here are the statistics on the frequency of thefts according to IC AlfaStrakhovanie data for January-June 2019 (the data is based on the number of cases of customer requests under CASCO policies):

• Toyota Land Cruiser prado – 0,79%.
• Toyota Land Cruiser - 0.68%
• Lexus LX - 0.53%
• Toyota Camry – 0,51%.
• Skoda Octavia - 0.44%.
• – 0,37%.
• Hyundai Tucson - 0.29%
• Kia rio – 0,28%.
• Hyundai Solaris - 0.25%
• Ford focus – 0,24%.

Note that, compared to the same period in 2018, the top 10 most stolen cars in Russia recorded quite serious changes:

• Lexus LX - 08%
• Toyota Camry - 0.87%
• Lexus NX - 0.46%
• Kia Sorento - 0.44%
• Kia Sportage - 0.43%
• Toyota RAV 4 - 0.29%
• Nissan X-Trail - 0.21%
• Toyota Land Cruiser - 0.18%
• Hyundai Solaris - 0.17%
• Kia Rio - 0.13%

According to IC Renaissance Insurance, in the first half of 2019 the list of the most stolen cars in Russia looks somewhat different:

• Hyundai Solaris.
• Kia Ceed.
• Hyundai Creta.
• Ford Kuga.
• Toyota RAV4.
• Hyundai Tucson.
• Hyundai Santa Fe.
• Kia Optima.
• Hyundai ix35.

Most likely abundance on the list hyundai models and Kia is associated not only with their affordability, but also with the increase in the cost of spare parts for korean cars, including used ones. It is also possible that car dealerships selling cars of these trade markshave an agreement with this insurance company.

Absence of representatives in all of the above options domestic auto industry quite understandable by the reluctance of their owners to insure the car against theft. Judging by last year's data, based on the number of theft statements filed with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the situation is quite different. In total, 33,759 vehicles were stolen, while it is the most stolen brand of cars in Russia - during 2018, 5,756 cases of theft were recorded, and there is no particular relationship between the models. Car thieves were interested in modern models, and VAZ classics, and cars with four-wheel drive... Experts explain this "demand" by the fact that by the number of offers for secondary market these models will be out of competition for a long time, and, consequently, spare parts for VAZs and Ladas are in great demand.

According to statistics, the top most stolen cars in Russia in 2019 in the foreign car segment are represented by a large number of Japanese and Korean brands. This is also understandable - crossovers from these countries are quite reliable, comfortable and cheaper than German cars.

However, the car brand is not the only factor affecting the likelihood of theft. The region of residence of the car owner is also important. Thus, the greatest activity of hijackers was recorded in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Moscow Region, where the concentration of cars is an order of magnitude higher than the average for the regions. Yekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk, Samara, Krasnoyarsk, Perm, Voronezh, Kazan, Yaroslavl are located behind the largest megalopolises of the country. The further from the center, the higher in the theft ratings budget models auto.

How to protect your car from theft

Even if your model is not mentioned in the rates of hijacking in the Russian Federation in 2017-2019, this does not mean that you are automatically eliminated from the risk zone. Remember that if thieves see the abandoned open car, even if it is a VAZ-2101, then they will probably try to take advantage of your oversight.

What can you do to minimize the likelihood of your vehicle? We bring to your attention a few recommendations from auto experts:

• try not to leave your car in unguarded parking lots. Overnight at the site near a house or a shopping center is not the best choice. At night, when the roads are deserted, and you hardly meet people, it is easiest to open the car protection. At the same time, the intruders have enough time not to make a mistake, and it takes 10-30 minutes to deliver the stolen car to the place of disassembly or changing of VIN codes and changing numbers;
• you should leave the car for maintenance only at approved service stations. And the point is not that a car can be stolen right here - this case is just unlikely. But a dishonest auto repairman, being in collusion with the hijackers, may well make a duplicate of keys or study the burglar alarm scheme, preparing your car for intruders. An even greater risk is to entrust the car to the “ad master”;
• never leave the keys in the lock, even leaving the car for a couple of minutes. Get in the car, start the engine and drive away - it's a matter of 10-15 seconds, even taking into account the fact that the attacker needs to make sure that the ignition switch is not empty;
• you should not provoke criminals by leaving valuable things in your car. If they see a laptop, smartphone, wallet inside, they will probably try to expropriate your things. If you have not put the car on the anti-theft, believe me, it is not difficult for a professional to open the door lock;
• another good way to reduce the attractiveness of your car for car thieves is to make it unique and recognizable. For example, a car with airbrushing will not dare to steal during the day, it is too noticeable;
• install a reliable anti-theft system. Remember that simple devices that emit audible alarms are currently not a reliable method of protection against theft. In megacities, howling car alarms has become so commonplace that it is often perceived as background noise. The anti-theft system must be comprehensive and provide multi-level protection;
• finally, just insure your car, especially if it is expensive. Believe me, your insurance policy costs are nothing compared to the amount spent on purchasing a car. Especially if it was bought on credit.

As you can see, all these recommendations can be roughly divided into two categories: free and requiring certain costs. We advise you not to skimp, because the carjacking business is considered highly profitable, and there is no reason to hope for a decrease in its scale.

About a sharp decline in this kind of offenses. According to official data, in the first three months of this year, 1978 vehicle thefts and thefts were registered in Moscow. Compared to the same period last year, the number of such crimes decreased by 12%.

Still the largest number thefts and thefts of vehicles are committed at night.

Among foreign cars, the most favorite among the hijackers were Mazda 3, Kia Rio, Solaris, Range Rover evoque and Ford Focus. Among domestic cars, the first place in this rating was taken by Lada priora.

According to the traffic police, the introduction of the "Interception" police plan made it possible to solve 43 crimes of a different nature, including 13 crimes directly related to vehicles. 1281 vehicles on the wanted list were detained (of which 979 were previously stolen or stolen).

In addition, in the first three months of this year, the traffic police in Moscow identified 1,063 various crimes and identified 787 persons who committed them (62 of them committed theft or theft of vehicles). 134 vehicles were found that escaped from the scene of the accident with the injured, of which vehicles were installed in two cases of fatal accidents.

According to a study by the analytical agency "Autostat", Moscow remains the leader in the number of car thefts in Russia. So, the average annual number of thefts passenger cars in Russia in 2013-2015 amounted to 39 149 units. According to analysts, Moscow has become the leader in terms of the absolute and average annual number of thefts for the specified period (16.7 thousand units and 7.7 thousand units, respectively). St. Petersburg took second place (13.6 thousand units and 6.3 thousand units).

Commenting on the decline in criminal activity in the capital, an expert at Ugona.net, Alexei Kurchanov, draws attention to the direct relationship between the statistics of new car sales and thefts. He is confident that with the growing demand, the hijackers will activate again.

“Sales of new cars have collapsed, and much more than by 12%,” Kurchanov says to Gazeta.Ru. - The secondary housing followed. That is, the proportion of hijackings in relation to sales has only increased. Cars are stolen both for disassembly and for resale. The peak months when the number of such crimes increases also depends on the demand for cars - the more people buy new cars, the more active the hijackers become. "

In turn, Dmitry Khaninev, General Director of Autosecurity, is confident that the requirements of insurance companies for the installation, which were tightened at the beginning of the year, influenced the improvement of statistics on thefts automotive systems protection.

“Since the beginning of the year, insurance companies have begun to demand that car owners install anti-theft devices on their cars - then they are ready to provide discounts on their services,” Khaninev says to Gazeta.Ru.

- Therefore, people drove to install them in droves, and as a result, stolen rates began to fall. By the way, we began to record more attempts at hijacking. As for the possible seasonality, it does not exist in this "business" - neither frost nor heat frighten the hijackers. During the crisis, nothing has changed in the same way, they did not steal less cars from this ”.

For the safety of their vehicle, the Department of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow advises car owners not to leave valuables in the cabin, thereby provoking criminals to break or damage it.

In addition, you should always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even for a few minutes.

There are frequent cases when attackers use this right in front of the owner, when he opens the gate to the yard or garage.

"Keep your car keys and alarm key fob in a safe place," advise the State Traffic Inspectorate. - Being in a crowded place, such as mall or at the train station, you should keep them with you to exclude the possibility of theft. Leave cars for storage in specialized parking lots, in courtyards in the areas covered by CCTV cameras or in a well-visible place. Use car security alarms and equip the car with non-standard anti-theft devices. "

Traffic police in Kiev hurries to help

In the Ukrainian State Traffic Inspectorate on April 10, drivers were given several non-trivial advice how to keep your car safe. In the context of a severe economic crisis and a sharp drop in the income of citizens, many of whom costly security systems became too expensive, they decided to advise drivers on more budget options for protecting their own cars.

You can also apply a marker on the glass of the license plate of the car.

“If you are not going to use the car for a long time, drain the gasoline, remove the battery and wheels, cover it with a cover, and regularly sweep away the snow or leaves so that the car is not mistaken for abandoned and disassembled,” advise on the website of the traffic police in Kiev. - Put the bolts with the secret heads on the wheels, put the lock on the wheels, and adjust the locks of the rear doors so that they only open from the inside.

Residents of rural areas are advised by enterprising law enforcement officers to make the steering wheel removable and carry with them.

More recently, the first figures for the most stolen cars of 2015 from Autostat and other reputable sources appeared. Many positions caused a lot of confusion and questions. To help you protect your iron horse from theft, we publish a list of the most stolen cars in Russia for 2015.

The most stolen cars in Russia in 2015

Since 2015 is not over, the rating of stolen cars has been compiled so far only for the period from January to May. If we focus on the indicators of Autostat, the number of stolen cars decreased by 6.1 percent compared to the previous reporting period.

The rating of stolen cars in Russia in 2015, as before, is headed by "frets", followed by "Toyota" and "Mazda". A similar pattern is associated with the ease of opening domestic cars... Plus, drivers rarely bother installing decent anti-theft detergents on cars under $ 15,000.

Most of all cars were stolen this year in Moscow and St. Petersburg. These cities top the list of stolen cars in 2015. Separately, mention should be made of the Moscow and Sverdlovsk regions, as well as the Krasnoyarsk and Krasnodar regions. The crime rate in these areas is at a consistently high level.

1. Lada 2106 - + 1.1%.
2. Lada 2107 - -4.9%.
3. Lada samara — -17,8%.
4. Ford Focus - -15.1%
5. Toyota Corolla — -1,7%.
6. Lada Priora - -16.1%.
7. Mazda 3 - -8.8%
8. Lada 2109 - -12.3%.
9. Toyota Camry - + 14.9%.
10. Hyundai Solaris - + 12.3%.

According to the rating of stolen cars in 2015, 4631 Lada cars were stolen from January to May alone. In the overall rating, the share of these machines is 31.3%. Leadership for many years has been occupied by the VAZ-2106. According to the experts, the interest of the hijackers in this model is primarily due to irresponsibility.

Due to its low cost, the VAZ-2106 tops the list of stolen cars in 2015. It is generally accepted among criminals that with such a low price for the stolen, no one will seriously search for it. In addition, most cars lack any anti-theft systems.

If you believe the testimony of law enforcement officers, the "Zhiguli" are stolen just to ride. The perpetrators are often teenagers and children. They usually leave the car somewhere outside the city.

This year the honorable second place is occupied by the VAZ-2107. He is most often kidnapped for spare parts.

Important! In 2014, VAZ-2109 and VAZ-2114 were ahead.

The fourth position is occupied by the Ford Focus. Compared to the previous year, it has risen in the ranking of the most stolen cars.

Respected automotive experts associate Ford's entry into the Top Most Stolen Cars 2015 with the growth of the shadow market for auto parts. Attackers do not have to search for buyers for their goods for a long time. All parts are sold almost instantly.

However, there is one oddity. Despite the fact that the Ford Focus ranks fourth in the ranking, there are no other cars of this brand even in the Top 30. Most likely this is due to the weak by a standard immobilizer specific model.

A Toyota Corolla is stolen for the same reason a Ford is. Spare parts from this machine are highly valued in the illegal parts market. Lada Priora took only seventh place in the all-Russian rating of stolen cars, despite its low price and relatively simple alarm system. This is due to the small number of cars produced. Nevertheless, in Moscow, the indicators are completely different.

Three models from Japanese manufacturers were included in the Top 10. The seventh place is occupied by the Mazda 3 car. Usually attackers steal hatchbacks. Them market value relatively low, but spare parts are sold at a good price.

A sad paradox - the decline in the standard of living among ordinary citizens has a bad effect on criminals. Only this fact can explain getting into the Hyundai Solaris list.

Those who did not make it to the Top

There are no cars in the Top presented above from nissan companies, Honda and Mitsubishi. Nevertheless, the Almera, Micra and Tiida models are highly popular among the hijackers. Moreover, Russia has a decent number of stolen Nissan teana.

Also, the practice of order theft is now widespread. Cars in top trim levels are stolen for further disassembly and re-equipment of other vehicles.

Attention! Lucky this year for Subaru owners... Models from this japanese company completely dropped out of the rating.

A large share of the hijacked vehicles falls on the products of French manufacturers. Miraculously, the model did not enter the top of the most stolen cars in 2015 Renault Logan, like other cars based on it.

Important! Renault Logan ranks 15th on the list. Not far from it went the Sandero and Duster models. Compared to last year, Logan was only 29th.

General trends in the statistics of car thefts by country

Attention! The practice of stealing middle class cars for ransom is gaining more and more spread. Criminals understand that the risk of persecution in this case is minimal.

The absence of Luxury class cars in the rating of stolen cars is explained by the change in the policy of insurance companies. Now they are demanding that their customers install the latest anti-theft systems. As a result of successful attempts at theft expensive cars become rare.

List of the most stolen cars in Moscow in 2015

The most stolen car in Moscow in 2015 is Lada Priora, and the list also includes:

• Mazda3,
• Hyundai Solaris,
• Kia Rio,
• Range rover.

I would like to draw a parallel with 2014. In comparison, the number of thefts has decreased by 12 percent. Most of the cars were stolen in the Southern District.

Attention! The activation of racers occurs at night.

Considering the number of applications filed, the Lada brand will be the unprecedented leader in the ranking of the most stolen cars of 2015 in Moscow. In the total amount of stolen vehicles, cars from Togliatti make up 33.1%.

Based on the comments of domestic auto experts, we can conclude that Lada Priora has become the most stolen car in Moscow due to the optimal balance of profit and risk. Among the Japanese models, the Mazda 3 is in the lead. The Ford Focus is also highly popular among car thieves.

In all other respects, the rating of the most stolen cars in Moscow does not differ much from the all-Russian one. Thieves prefer to steal inexpensive budget cars like Hyundai Solaris and KIA RIO. This allows them to earn good money with minimal risk. The only premium car on the list is the Range Rover Evoque.

Range Rover Evoque is most often stolen to order with subsequent re-registration to the new owner. The same technology is used to steal premium segment cars, bMW brands, Mercedes and Lexus. Medium vehicles price category simply distilled to another city or dismantled for parts.

List of the most stolen cars of 2015 in St. Petersburg

The most stolen car in St. Petersburg in 2015 is the Ford Focus. It should be noted that in 2014 it was the same. But the second and third places were taken by Renault Logan and Kia Rio, the line of budget vehicles that are significant in theft continues:

1. Mazda 3;
2. Renault Duster;
3. Hyundai Solaris;
4. Renault Sandero;
5. Mazda 6;
6. Toyota Camry.

The total number of stolen cars in the first half of 2015 was 2737 cars. According to statistics, most of the thefts occurred in three districts:

Interestingly, the most stolen car of the VAZ brand takes only 14th place. And the leader of the Moscow rating is Lada Priora - 27. There is not a single domestic car in the Top-10. All these are foreign cars of average and budget class... The first truly expensive car occupies only 20th position in this rating - this is the Toyota Land Cruiser.

Outcome

The best protection a set of measures is considered against theft, including:

• alarm;
• steering wheel, gearbox and engine blocker;
• satellite tracking system.

Additional locks on the hood and trunk lid will be useful.

Safety personal car can be a real headache for the driver. The statistics of thefts can come to his aid. Owners of the most stolen cars in Russia should consider increasing the level of protection of their vehicle.

The ranking of the most stolen cars shows which model is popular with the hijackers and which cars are least protected from penetration. Also from it we can conclude about the carelessness of the owners of certain cars. In most cases, it is not so difficult to prevent theft - you just need to install an anti-theft system, which costs less than CASCO on this car.

Drivers with standard protection are at risk. Most hijackers stop attempting to enter a vehicle when faced with an anti-theft complex, even if it is a car attractive to a criminal. Most likely, attackers will be interested in cheaper, but also more "hijacked" machines.

Speaking about the statistics of car theft, it should be borne in mind that there is no single method of collecting information for it. There are 3 main sources for ranking theft:

1. State Inspection Statistics road traffic (Traffic police). Perhaps the most reliable source. The overwhelming majority of drivers in one way or another contact the police if their car is stolen.
2. Statistics on thefts from companies providing services for the installation of security systems. They are interested in information on the ratio of the number of stolen cars equipped with security systems, and the number of unsuccessful attempts to steal them. Such data rather give an idea of \u200b\u200bwhich security systems are most effective.
3. A rating of car theft from insurance companies that are vitally interested in spending as little as possible on insurance payments. In this regard, for the most stolen cars, an increased cost of insurance and special conditions in the insurance contract are provided. For insurers, different circumstances of the crime matter: whether the car was equipped with a security system, where and when it was broken into. Of course, the most representative statistics will be the statistics of theft of the largest insurance companies due to a large number of clients.

The most stolen car brands

New car models are rarely released and cybercriminals' preferences are changing gradually, so a list of the most stolen cars from 2017 can help you understand the trend of 2018 or even 2019.

The top most stolen cars in Russia in 2017 are as follows:

• Lada - 31% of the total number of thefts, only about 8.5 thousand cars of this brand were stolen.
• Toyota - 16%.
• Hyundai - 7%.
• Kia - 6%.
• Nissan - 5%.
• Mazda - 4%.
• Renault - 4%.
• Ford - 4%
• Mitsubishi - 3%.
• Honda - 3%.
• BMW - 3%.
• Mercedes - 3%.
• Volkswagen - 2%
• Chevrolet - 2%
• Lexus - 2%.
• Land Rover - 2%
• Audi - 2%.
• Daewoo - 1%.
• Infinity - 1%.
• Gas - 1%.

Lada cars top the national rating of theft year after year. Firstly, there are simply the most of them in Russia, secondly, the criminals managed to study well the standard protection system of AvtoVAZ products, and thirdly, the owners of some of these models have modest incomes that do not allow them to purchase expensive and effective alarms that can protect against intruders ...

In 2015 and 2016, by the way, Lada and Toyota were also in the lead. By 2017, the statistics of thefts for kia cars and Hyundai. If we talk about in which regions most of all cars are stolen in Russia, then no surprises are expected here - Moscow and St. Petersburg are in the lead.

The most stolen premium cars

The list of the most stolen premium cars in Russia for 2018 is as follows:

1. Lexus LX - 174 pcs.
2. Mercedes E-Class - 155 pcs.
3. BMW X5 - 150 pcs.
4. BMW 5 - 139 pcs.
5. Mercedes S-Class - 137 pcs.
6. Land Rover Rang Rover - 118 pcs.
7. Lexus RX - 109 pcs.
8. BMW 3 - 101 pcs.
9. Infiniti FX / QX70 - 98 pcs.
10. Mercedes C-Class - 89 pcs.

The Lexus LX, which is in first place, has also topped the list of the most stolen cars in terms of the ratio of cars sold / stolen for several years. To commit such crimes against elite cars, the tag relay method is mainly used. If she is not identified, the electronic unit control will not start the engine.

Hijackability in Moscow for 2019-2020

The statistics of thefts in Moscow at the beginning of 2020 are as follows:

1. Mazda 3 - 157 pcs.
2. Kia Rio - 118 pcs.
3. Hundai Solaris - 110 pcs.
4. Ford Focus - 101 pcs.
5. Range Rover Evoque - 88 units
6. Toyota Corolla - 74 pcs.
7. Toyota Camry - 65 pcs.
8. Honda Civic - 62 pcs.
9. Mitsubishi Lancer - 61 pcs.
10. Toyota Land Cruiser 200 - 57 pcs.

So far, Mazda is overtaking Toyota, the most popular car with criminals in Moscow last year. At that time, two of its representatives were in the lead in terms of models: Toyota Camry and Toyota Land Cruiser 200. But Mazda 3 took off from its then ninth place, overtaking its "sister" Mazda CX 5 and all the other of the most stolen cars in Moscow. There is also no Mitsubishi Outlander, the brainchild of the Mitsubishi concern, popular in the past.

Protection methods

In the presence of special equipment and with sufficient qualifications of a criminal, you can hack any of the standard protective systems that are supplied to cars in factories. And most of the domestic hijackers will be able to cope with the device leading the top of the most hijacked Lada.

Another problem can be an unqualified alarm installation. It is not uncommon for non-professional installers to make the big mistake of depriving a vehicle of an immobilizer, the most reliable element of a protective system. The alarm simply cannot function without a key, which is needed to start the engine by the protective system. It is registered in the standard immobilizer unit. It is much easier for cybercriminals to deal with hacking in this case.

It is worthwhile to be wary if you are promised a complete installation of the protection system in just a few hours. In this case, a hastily made template system awaits the driver, which will not cause trouble for serious criminals. Truly reliable protection can be provided by a network of devices including additional anti-relay tags for the keyless entry system. It will be easier for car owners in Moscow and St. Petersburg to find a good specialist, but in other regions this may be difficult.

A driver who is concerned about the safety of his vehicle should know the degree of reliability of the security system of his car and the stealing rating of cars by brand in order to minimize the risk of theft of his property.
