Illegally commandeer (a vehicle) (6)

I believe the answer is:

hijack

(Other definitions for hijack that I've seen before include "Seize control of (plane)" , "Take over plane by force in flight" , "Seize control of vehicle in transit" , "Seize control of an aircraft or ship" , "making hostile takeover" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
