You gotta figure it's at least partly due to how common the cars are, but are Hyundais just that easy to steal? There can't be that much interest in them.

    I think those are/were the ones that could be started with just a USB-A connector…sticking it in where the key goes. And everyone has usb cables in their cars already…

    These numbers are specifically because of the "KIA Boys" issue that affected non-electric cars with standard keys and no immobilizer. They did recalls that fixed a bunch of models and gave out lame steering wheel locks for the others, so I imagine it is lower now.
