Luxury Car Thefts Surge in Sweden

Published: 2024-06-13

The police have received around twenty reports of luxury car thefts across Sweden in recent months, particularly in Stockholm, Uppsala, and Western police regions.

The stolen cars, mainly Range Rovers and Dodge RAMs, are often worth millions.

Thieves use digital equipment to capture the key signal from outside homes, allowing them to open and start the cars without keys.

The police suggest storing car keys in a metal box to prevent signal interception.

None of the stolen cars have been traced yet, and it is suspected they are taken abroad.
