Hint:The sentence stuffed ought to be grammatically correct. Ensure the word opted is acceptable for that specific sentence. Frequently build meanings of the sentences then choose the correct one.

Complete answer:
Option A) It is stolen. - This sentence is grammatically incorrect and the form of this sentence is not in passive voice and ‘is’ cannot be used here.
Option B) It has been stolen. -This sentence is grammatically correct and the form of this sentence is in passive voice and ‘has been’ will be used here.
Option C) It was stolen. -This sentence is grammatically incorrect and the form of this sentence is not in passive voice and ‘was’ cannot be used here.
Option D) It had been stolen. -This sentence is grammatically incorrect and the form of this sentence is not in passive voice and ‘had been’ cannot be used here.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note:An action during a sentence might be represented in two ways, particularly in active and passive voice.
The passive voice always uses the past participle form of the main verb regardless of any other tense. Only the auxiliary verbs depend upon the sentence which is given in the active voice.
As the given sentence is in active voice and to transform it into passive voice , the subject of the given sentence comes in the place of the object and vice versa. As the tense used here is present perfect tense, 'been' is added after the helping verb 'has' and before the past participle form of the main verb.
Here, the subject is ‘the car’ , object is ‘it’ and the main verb is ‘steal’.
