Mercedes-Benz S-Class and SL-Class Among Most Stolen
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class and SL-Class vehicles are among the top 7 cars most likely to be stolen according to data released by the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI), which tracks per-car theft losses. The rankings are reported in relative terms.
For example, a car with an HLDI theft loss score of 100 is considered to be average – numbers above 100 are higher than average. The Cadillac Escalade EXT has an astronomical loss ranking of 1,728. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class and SL-Class rank 6th and 7th on the list; rankings of 227 and 209, respectively.
