German car thieves focus on one brand
The German police in Dresden are facing an unusual string of car thefts, with a particular focus on Hyundai vehicles, having stolen 15 cars since the beginning of 2026, compared to 16 cars throughout the entire year of 2025. The high frequency of these thefts is raising concerns among investigators, especially with six cars missing in the past few weeks, most notably a Hyundai Tucson worth around 28,000 euros. The police have not yet uncovered the reasons behind the focus on Hyundai or the identity of the thieves, but they do not rule out that the group may be organized and specialized. Questions are also being raised about potential security vulnerabilities or dismantling and selling of parts. This situation echoes a series of similar thefts targeting Toyota cars in Chemnitz before the sudden halt of their operations, which resulted in losses exceeding 600,000 euros.
