Subaru has been named a standout performer when it comes to reducing vehicle theft according to a report published by NRMA Insurance.

The annual Vehicle Theft Ratings measure the ability of a car to resist being broken into, stolen and re-birthed.

Subaru models topped two segments in the report.

Subaru’s Liberty scored 102 points out of a maximum 120, taking out first place in the Medium Car Segment by more than 12 points.

Liberty achieved the maximum 100 points available in both theft resistance and vehicle identification thanks to the standard inclusion of a vehicle immobiliser and DataDot technology.

Tribeca also scored 102 points, leading the People Movers category by more than 17 points.

Subaru’s new generation Impreza also ranked highly with fourth place in the competitive Small-Medium vehicle category.
