Équité Association reveals 2024’s Most Stolen Vehicle Models

Last year in Canada, over a billion dollars in insurance claims were filed in relation to auto thefts. And the Équité Association, which researches insurance fraud and crime, has released its report on the most stolen vehicles across the country in 2024.

The Toyota RAV4 is in first place. Équité says SUV’s like the RAV4 are often targeted in Ontario and Quebec for their keyless security vulnerabilities in newer models.

The Dodge Ram 1500 Series is right behind. It is the most stolen truck in Canada, and the most stolen vehicle overall in Alberta and Atlantic Canada.

Other models of Honda and Toyota and Ram 1500’s truck were also targeted, with most models produced in the last five years.

There is some good news though. Auto theft rates in our country continue to decrease exponentially. In the first half of 2025 there’s been a 19.1% national decrease in theft of private passenger vehicles, compared to the same period in 2024.

Équité president Terri O’Brien adds in the statement that Canada is a safer place today than it was at the height of the auto theft crisis, and that levels have returned to pre-crisis levels.
