Toyota recently announced that it has introduced additional security measures in some new vehicles aimed at thwarting thieves from stealing Toyota vehicles.
Other common vehicles on Victoria’s roads have even lower ratios. There are 100,056 Mazda 3s registered in Victoria, and 73 thefts of the vehicle were recorded in the first 9 months of 2025, equating to 1 in every 1371 Mazda 3s being stolen.
However, registration data does not provide a complete representation of the vehicles in Victoria at any given time, as cars from any state may be outside their state of origin.
Additionally, the Victorian Government and Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) state that the data may have errors and state in regards to the data that: “No claim is made as to the accuracy or currency of the content on this site at any time”.

The stolen vehicle data in this article is reflective of the data provided to Drive by Victoria’s Crime Statistics Agency. This data is collected by Victoria Police.
However, Drive has identified some inconsistencies in the stolen vehicle data collected by Victoria Police, such as incorrectly named vehicles. These incorrect vehicles include multiple instances of a ‘Toyota Lantra’ and a ‘Mazda Elite’ being stolen. Neither Toyota nor Mazda has ever sold a car under these names in Australia. Drive has contacted Victoria Police for clarification regarding these inconsistencies.
