You asked
How many, UK-wide, electric Hyundai Kona vehicles were stolen in the UK in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and so far in 2023
If you have the breakdown of the figures of how they were stolen (ie by physically breaking into the vehicle, or by cloning keyless access) I would be very grateful for these figures too.
We said
Thank you for contacting the ONS Centre for Crime and Justice. We do not hold the information you have requested.
We publish estimates from the Crime Survey for England and Wales on the nature of vehicle-related theft in our Nature of crime: vehicle-related theft tables, which includes the method of entry. However, we do not hold this information for specific makes or model of vehicle.
The latest data we have published are for the year ending March 2020. We were unable to collect data on the nature of crime in the telephone-operated survey (TCSEW) during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, while face-to face interviewing was paused. Now that we have returned to face-to-face interviewing, we have begun to collect these data again and will be able to publish an update of these estimates in the future.
The Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) may be better placed to help with your request. Contact details can be found on the DVLA website.
