Toyota's Theft Problem: When Prado, HiLux, and LandCruiser become the easiest targets
"Toyota waited until theft became a crisis instead of designing cars thieves couldn't crack. That's what happens when durability becomes a liability."
— Revvly Take
Toyota's adding new security measures to combat rising theft of three of its most bulletproof utility vehicles. The Prado, HiLux, and LandCruiser are getting hit because they're simple to steal, bulletproof in resale markets, and worth real money in parts. When your security becomes an afterthought, the market tells you something's wrong.
