What cars can circulate and which ones rest on August 2

by

Saturday. August 2, specifically. Moment to rest … especially if you are a car that is part of the restrictions of today does not circulate Sabatino. Because, indeed, today some cars will have to stay at home. What we are talking about is the program today does not circulate, that designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) that forces to leave some cars at home with the idea of improving the quality of the air we breathe. With him, polluting emissions should go down. The system is simple: some cars, especially the most pollutants, have to stay at home. For them there are restrictions but the same Saturdays do not always stay at home. And, where it applies, some cars have to rest. And where is it applied? Specifically in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Taking all this into account, who should stay at home? Daily, restrictions are simple to understand, you can clarify all the details in the superior image. But not every Saturday, for example, they have to stay home on Saturdays. And some of them can move with total freedom but others have more problems. Which is it? Specifically, those who have total freedom and other weeks cannot move. Because, indeed, there are restrictions that alternate week by week. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Clarified all this, should we take something more into account? Yes, as we told you, the Sabatino does not circulate today has the peculiarity that it does not always apply in the same way. Therefore, it does not always affect the cars themselves. First you have to look at the calendar (then we will see why it is important), then the hologram and, finally, the plate number. This is because Saturday is a special day in the program of today does not circulate Sabatino. It does not always affect the same cars in the same way. Those of Hologram 2, for example, cannot circulate any Saturday but those of Hologram 0 and 00 can do it every week. In that case, they have total freedom. And those of Hologram 1? Here is the crumb because a few weeks can move and others do not. In this case, the Saturday, August 2, 2025are obliged to rest those that the registration ends in odd number. This is because we are on the first Saturday of August and, therefore, it is these cars that must stay at home. Next week, the second week (PAR) will affect cars with a plate finished in torque. Of course, do not forget that there are some exceptions that allow some cars to move with total freedom. Are the following: However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

Sell almost only electric cars

by

A look at the ten brands of best -selling electric cars in the world throws a devastating conclusion: China has no rival. However, if we had to make a list of countries where the adoption of “electric” vehicles has been an absolute success, more doubts would enter us. We know that Norway He is doing wellbut few expected the same of the nation that lives at the top of the planet: Nepal. Electric boom in the heights. I told this week The New York Times. In the midst of road chaos of Katmandúwhere motorcycles, buses and taxis fill the narrow streets with noise and smoke, a silent revolution is underway and reaches all the corners of the country: electric vehicles already They represent 76% of all passenger cars sold in Nepal and about half of light commercial vehicles. Just five years ago, that figure was practically non -existent. The country has thus become one of the world leaders for adoption of electric cars, only surpassed by cases Like NorwaySingapore or Ethiopia, and far ahead of the most developed economies, where the global average quota Round 20%. This vertiginous change is the result of a Combination of factors: State subsidies policies, the use of the abundance of hydroelectric energy and the proximity of China, the greater producer Electric World. Policies and clean energy as an engine. Nepal’s bet for electricity did not arise from nothing. After the 2015 border crisis With India, which suffocated the import of oil, the government decided to strengthen energy security through Great investments in hydroelectric dams and transmission networks. This managed to eradicate chronic blackouts and offer cheap and non -polluting energy. The following logic was to transfer that resource to transport. To reduce electric vehicles in a country with a GDP per capita of just $ 1,400the Executive reduced import taxes to A maximum of 40%compared to 180% applied to combustion cars. In addition, one promoted one Recharge infrastructure When installing 62 state stations and allow hotels and restaurants to add thousands more thanks to almost null tariffs and subsidized electricity. He result: Repositing a gasoline car cost fifteen more than loading an electric one, creating an immediate economic incentive. A load station in Nepal The Chinese impulse. The electrical revolution could not be explained without the China’s thrust. Brands like ByD broke into Nepal With adapted models to the mountainous roads and prices that left behind Indian competition. In a few years, distributors Like Yamuna Shrestha They went from being marginal visionary to manage dozens of dealers and thousands of sales. Consumers, tempted by high performance cars at half -priced than a tesla, They launched the purchasewhile traditional brands such as Suzuki or Tata are forced to electrify their catalog or lose the market. He Times told examples Of individuals, such as a former policeman who acquired an electric minibus to operate a line between Katmandú and Janakpur, discovering that they can cover loans and obtain stable profits in less than five years, despite the still limited load network. Risks of setback and doubts. Success, however, is not guaranteed. The reason? Nepal has had three prime ministers in five years and each change of government Alterate priorities. The Central Bank recently doubled the Initial payment required For the purchase of an electric, the State begins to raise tariffs to compensate for the loss of fossil fuel income and there is still no national battery recycling plan. The fear that defective vehicles of minor Chinese brands damage confidence in the sector also worry about dealerships, who ask for Quality certifications independent. For Some analystseverything will depend on the policy maintaining the stability of the incentives and a long -term vision is consolidated. The challenge of public transport. However, and despite progress in private cars, most Nepali It does not have a car and depends on motorcycles and polluting buses. The electrification of this segment is key if the country wants to clean the air of its cities. The State has acquired 41 electric buses For the public company Sajha Yatayat, but experts estimate that they would be necessary at least 800 to offer a real alternative to individual vehicles. China already offered to donate 100 more units, in a movement that combines diplomacy and market, and that Nepal accepts without qualms. However, low public transport prices (about 36 cents for longer journeys) make it difficult to finance large fleets. The solution would go through a metropolitan authority that reorganizes traffic and prioritizes collective transport, although its creation continues blocked by political disputes. Future under construction. In short, Nepal has become a very unexpected Global Laboratory Of electric transition, demonstrating that a developing country, with successful policies and clean energy available, can advance faster than powers. The challenge is possibly sustaining the impulse in a context of political and economic fragility, while extending electrification beyond private cars towards mass transport and motorcycles. As A former director affirmed From Sajha Yatayat, the Katmandu Valley is “waiting for someone to turn the key.” If that key remains firm, in just five years Nepal could completely transform urban mobility and become a Electrification Model For the developing world.

A Chinese program has tested the safety levels of Chinese cars. He has evidenced Chinese cars

by

China has received a blow of reality. This is Kyle Chan’s opinionexpert in Chinese industry, who summarizes the position of Tesla on the rest of the Chinese companies in terms of safety of their ADAS systems. The Tweet is motivated by a Chinese program that has faced 36 cars to the same exam to check how 15 obstacles were solved. The result: 216 accidents and a much higher position of Tesla. So superior that Elon Musk’s cars have not only obtained the highest score, they are also the only ones who have successfully solved five of the six major scenarios under which the tests were encompassed. But, in addition to all this, there are many other interesting diatribes. All tests were published on television since they were carried out by the media DonGchedi. It is not just a sample of the lack of Chinese cars is also a touch of attention to their own manufacturers. Frightful results China is living a revolution in the car market. There is no doubt about that. They have electric cars with the highest technological load in the world and live in a competitive bubble so strong that it threatensLeave multiple brands aheadwith the most settled by launching a Aggressive Price War. But in addition to having the car equipped with the fastest electric charge or the best incorporated drone, Chinese manufacturers They have been presuming exceptional autonomous driving capabilities. In fact, ourselves in Xataka We have been able to check firsthand how a car of less than 10,000 euros to direct change, such as Byd Seagullcan move with total ease with the famous Eye of God less advanced. Despite this, the Chinese government has been launching messages to manufacturers warning them that they cannot sell promises that they cannot meet later. That is why he has imposed fines to those who offer their products showing videos or presuming an advanced autonomous driving that then has many asterisks. It is one of the reasons why Autonomous driving was the great absent In the last presentation of Xiaomi Yu7. And the ears pull has finished exemplifying the tests performed by the Chinese media DonGchediwhose video and a half video It can also be seen on YouTube. It shows the examination that 36 cars have passed, the vast majority of them Chinese cars, who have faced 15 risk situations encompassed in six large groups. The result has been fateful. The Chinese car with the best score has been the GWM Wey Lanshan, obtaining the third best score and saving furniture in three of the six large groups. Specifically, he acted correctly avoiding an accident when he found an unexpected obstacle on the road, with the appearance of trucks in works areas or when a second vehicle appeared completely detained by surprise. He suspended with the appearance of other obstacles in works areas, when a second vehicle cut his trajectory aggressively or with the appearance of a wild animal. Similar results (exceeding three of the six scenarios) have also been obtained by the XPEng G6, Aito M9, Luxeed R7 and De denza Z9 GT EV, from better to worse score. Below, all the remaining cars (29 of 36) have not solved more than two risk situations. And of those 29 suspended cars, another 15 have failed to overcome even one of the proposed scenarios. Some, in fact, have only faced four risk situations because they lacked the necessary equipment to face these tests. The Mercedes Class C and the Volkswagen Passat are among these 15 cars that have failed to overcome a single test. But there are surprises among the suspended. The eighth classified is the Aion RT, a Chinese car that has not managed to overcome more than two tests. Just ahead of TOYOTA BZ3Xthe next non -Chinese car (With its nuances) that is in the test and that next to Tesla is the only one that sneaks among the 10 best. If we can talk about “the best” for cars that have not exceeded four of the six proposed tests. They are cars that, despite everything, have been better classified than the Xiaomi Su7 (and also that its ultra version, which has obtained worse results yet), six byd cars (both under the firm byd and some of its luxury brands) or those expected in Europe, the leapmotor C10 and the XPEng P7 (which are sold in Europe) or the expected Zeekr 001O EV. You can see all the list in Carnewschina. A good ear pull The publication of the evidence is not accidental and is especially relevant. In the post with which we opened this article, Kyle Chan highlighted that Tesla is living her own “Chatgpt moment”. The company It has been criticized by Do not include lidar radars in their cars that should improve their performance. However, it has proven to be ahead of all its competitors. The Tesla Model 3 and Model and They are the only ones who have achieved Save successfully almost all tests. The electric Berlina only suspended when faced with the appearance of a wild animal while model and did overcome this problem but acted in an inconvenient way in the scenarios in works. In spite of everything, Chan defends on his tweet that the results highlight the true situation of Chinese technology, although manufacturers try to demonstrate that they are much more advanced. For Chan, that the tests were broadcast on television are a clear government call to the manufacturers, something that begins to be common after an accident of an Xiaomi SU7 that had activated the ADAS systems for semi -automatic driving was recorded. Hu Xijin, former newspaper editor Global Timeswhich is dependent on the Chinese Communist Party and, therefore, it is understood that it is an extension of the government’s communications, pointed out That the results of the tests were good for local manufacturers because they position them where they really are. Understand that it is a good time for Chinese brands to learn what Elon … Read more

The throne on the list of the most reliable cars of 2025 has changed. What does not change is Japan’s domain

by

Usually, after a house, The purchase of a car It is the second greater expense that we have to face. It is still something indispensable in the day to day of us, But with upward pricesit is necessary think very well what is bought. Apart from choosing a motorization model or personal tastes, it is always advisable to take an eye on the lists of the most reliable cars in the market. And the new analysis of Consumer Reports It is a great help to make that decision. Changes in the noble zone. Although they focus on the US market, there are common models in different territories and lists like the one we have in hand or JD Power’s are very interesting. They handle reports sent by thousands of consumers, analyze several key points of new cars and are so relevant that some of their findings They have forced brands to take action (such as the failure in the rotary engines of Mazda in 1973). Every year they make their list with the most reliable car brands, Those who go down the least for the workshopand in which they have just published they take reports from 2022 to 2024, as well as the first bars of 2025. Normally, it was a boring table, but in this year’s edition we see that Toyota and Lexus, who had been dominating for years, have lost one position each due to the rise of another brand that, to anyone’s surprise, remains Japanese: Subaru. Graph | Consumer Reports The tail does not change. The domain of the Japanese in the upper part is a constant in recent years, this reliability being one of the presentation cards held by cars in the ‘rising sun’. In the lower part of the reliability list there are also some position changes, but the names we see are the same (and the countries too). If the Japanese stand out above and in the middle part of the South Koreans like Kia or Hyundai, in the lower part those who dominate are the Americans. Jeep, GMC or Cadillac are not well stopped. Nor does the German Volkswagen (again) and the red lantern is Rivian. The one who became the Third most important car manufacturer in the world In the stock market, they collapsed in record time, losing 90% of its value in just three years. It is the brand that worst score takes this year’s list. And if you are wondering where Alfa Romeo, Mercedes, Mitsubishi or Fiat are, from CR points out that they did not have enough data to be able to add them legitimately to the list. We will see if for the final report of the year contemplating everything 2025 changes the thing. What do they analyze. View the list, let’s see the data and conclusions of Consumer Reports. For this year’s report, they have asked their members about the problems they have had with their vehicles in the last 12 months. In total, data from more than 300,000 vehicles from 2000 to 2024 have compiled, but as we said, also with 2025 models that have had sufficient units on the street to be relevant to the compilation. They analyze 20 problem areas ranging from brakes to the engine, through broken embellishness, potential problems outside battery, transmission and problems that affect the electric and hybrids as the battery and load and create a score for each vehicle from 1 to 100. Hybrids stand out. As they point out, all that previous experience and the data of newer models have allowed this year’s list to be the most complete for hybrids and electric. They claim that they continue to improve, but that if there is a king on all electrified, they are the HEV hybrids. Jake Fisher is the technical director of Tests at Consumer Reports and points out that, although hybrids “remain extremely efficient in fuel consumption, they also offer reliability that is similar to conventional combustion cars despite their added difficulty.” He continues to affirm that “on average, they have a similar number of problems that cars propelled by a combustion engine” and comments that the most reliable models are from Toyota, Lexus, Kia and Hyundai, with cars such as Corolla, Rav4, Elantra el Sorento, Highlander or Lexus NX. But with reservations. It also points out that not all hybrids are the same and that Ford, for example, has a reliability problem with both the F-150 as with the F-150 hybrid. In addition, they strive to indicate that the most reliable of electrified are pure hybrids, since PHEV or plug -in hybrids They are less reliable. And, as a final recommendation, from the report they clarify that, although a brand can be very reliable, there are always models that stand out and others that lower the average. If we are interested in particular, it is worth looking for information from that and not getting carried away by the general reliability guides. And they say it with a specific model in mind: the TOYOTA BZ4Xbeing the one that lowers the score of the brand. Interestingly, it is the basis of Subaru’s single, and also lowers the average of this company.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on July 26

Saturday. Day off. Rest for us, of work, and rest for cars that yes or yes they have to stay at home with today does not circulate sabbatino. As? Yes, because if you still don’t know, there are some cars that have to stay at home, yes or yes, if you don’t want to receive a fine. What we are talking about is of the program today does not circulate, devised by the Ministry of Environment of the CDMX (Sedema) with the aim of improving the air we breathe. To achieve this, the plan is very simple: we have to leave cars at home. At least those that are more polluting. Therefore, there are restrictions that do not allow us to enjoy our car on Saturday. Restrictions, yes, that only apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today But, once we are clear about the most basic, who have to stay at home? Very simple, restrictions as you can see in the image superior are applied every day. But not every day the same cars are affected. That is complicated on Saturdays since it is not always the same cars that are forced to rest. Some of them, in fact, may not move any Saturday but others can only do so one yes and another not in alternate weeks. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Once we have all this clear … What should we take into account? First of all, the Sabatino does not circulate today does not always apply to the same cars, as we said. To be clear about everything, you have to look at the calendar first, then the hologram and, finally, the plate number. We say about the calendar because on Saturdays, which occupy us, they are special. Cars with hologram 2 cannot move any Saturday of the current month. On the contrary, Hologram 0 and 00 can move without problems. In that case there is total freedom. So what happens to the hologram 1? These cars rotate depending on the latest issue of their registration plate. In this case, such as Saturday July 26, 2025 We are facing the fourth Saturday of the month of July will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those that cannot move. Taking all this into account, what to take into account when it comes to circulating? The first thing is that today does not circulate Sabatino does not always apply to all cars. It is mandatory to look at the calendar, the hologram and, finally, the plate number. In that order. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

All his fortune is managed by the Crown Property Bureauan organism equivalent to what would be national heritage in Spain, which manages the assets of the Monarchy of Thailand. In addition to being able to sleep in a different house every day for the rest of his life, the Thai monarch has 38 private jets that he could pilot the military training he received as part of his preparation as a monarch. He put himself at the controls From Boeing 737-800 in which the Thai delegation was traveling and landed without major problems at the unemployment International Airport, considered one of the most dangerous airports in the world for its orography.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on July 19

Indeed, you have already lifted the immediate joy of remembering that it is Saturday has accompanied the bittersweet feeling of another memory: that of today does not circulate Sabatino. And, as you know well, on Saturdays there are specific circulatory restrictions for today, that program designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) with the aim of improving the air we breathe. These restrictions pass, irremediably, for leaving at home those cars that are affected by them. Restrictions, of course, that only apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Once we know the most basic, what restrictions should we take into account? First that these restrictions apply, yes or yes, every day as you can see in the superior image but there are special days. Those special days are every Saturday of the month when some cars do not have to stay at home and others will have to stay in the garage week by week. But, doubts come with those who rotate. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Taking all this into account, what to take into account when it comes to circulating? The first thing is that today does not circulate Sabatino does not always apply to all cars. It is mandatory to look at the calendar, the hologram and, finally, the plate number. In that order. The calendar because on Saturdays, as we said, they are special. Some cars, those of Hologram 2, may not move any Saturday of the month. These cars have to stay home every Saturday at the time that restrictions are applied. The opposite happens with those of Hologram 0 and 00. In that case, there is total freedom. And the hologram 1? In that case, for restrictions the calendar must be taken into account. This Saturday, July 19, 2025 We are facing the third Saturday of the month. That means that it is the cars with hologram 1 and plate finished in odd number those that rest. Next week, as is broken, they will be finished in torque. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

China is selling more cars than ever. There are those who believe that, in reality, they are using their concessionaires as warehouses

by

Is the swollen electric car market? This is what some experts begin to wonder when the latest information that comes from the Asian country is attended. Vehicle automation seem to be triggered and now it is the concessionaires themselves who give the alarm. Excess offer and price wars are putting the strings to the concessionaires. An alarm. The Chamber of Commerce of China’s car dealerships has expressed concern about the massive arrival of vehicles to their network and require manufacturers to stop sending them vehicles because they are having problems selling them. The information brings it Reuters Those who echo the statement of this association that has given the alarm before a practice, that of automatricular vehicles, which seems to be overflowing the distributors. They run the risk of ending them. The fear of this association is that the current moment of the Chinese car takes to its own dealers ahead. In their statement they ask manufacturers to point to reasonable sales (and productive) figures and stop using their spaces for storing cars. They assure that accumulating both stock with automatrications is further favoring a price war that drown their margins or forces them to sell at losses and, therefore, is putting a multitude of businesses at risk in this part of the chain. What is happening? The voices that suggest that the Chinese market is being filled with automatriculated vehicles that are then Malvender are not new. Wei Jianjun, president of Great Wall Motor, assured in an interview with Sina Finance that there were between 3,000 and 4,000 dealers accumulating an excessive stock of vehicles. Jianjun came to qualify the “Evergrande del Autos” Chinese real estate bubble. In fact, in Reuters They assured weeks ago that the government itself called a meeting to car manufacturers to study the situation. Among the greats indicated were Byd and Dongfeng Motors. A tactic “to the European”. This way of acting from automatricular new vehicles, loading the network and then selling them as semi -new or Km 0 cars is not be baffled in Europe. In fact, it is a usual tactic of manufacturers to ensure a minimum number of sales of their vehicles, forcing dealers to buy a minimum number of cars that then have to sell on their own. These tactics are usually applied when The year endsmakeup the numbers a little, when a new regulation arrives and prevents selling cars by emission limits or lack of security equipment (as the recent European obligations with the ADAS). The face b. What worries Chinese concessionaires is that all these units that are entering the semi -new market do not manage to sell or need enormous discounts to give them exit. It is the same that happened in the United States where a concessionaire practically gave the Fiat 500 electric Because he had been forced to buy units that there was no way to get at a reasonable price in the market. In China, fear is founded because price wars are even more aggressive, with a very competitive market, with many brands that are pressing to lower prices. To this we must add a rhythm of product releases and their development that They quickly leave obsolete those already in the networkhindering its sale even more. To this is added that China lives a problem of internal consumption. By culture, the Chinese client is reluctant to spend a lot of money. Despite promoting a higher expensethe Chinese average client It is still reluctant to the big purchases OA a rapid rhythm of product replacement, which is making it difficult to give out these products.

The first prohibitions to diesel cars over 10 years are already underway. There is only a small detail: there are no

by

Gasoline cars that comply with Euro 3 and diesel cars that comply with Euro 4 or Euro 5. That is the definition made by the DGT of the vehicles that They carry the bchatin B in cars. Although, really, what traffic has done has been discriminating for years of enrollment. Thus, cars with stickers B are enrolled between 2000 and 2006 for gasoline cars and Between 2006 and 2014 for diesel. This decision has generated some inconveniences since there are vehicles enrolled before 2000 (gasoline) or 2006 (diesel) that comply with the aforementioned emission regulations. But, except those exceptions that can be reviewedcars with stickers B are at least ten years behind them if we talk about diesel vehicles. Discrimination has raised some controversies since the owners of these cars face more hard restrictions than gasoline cars. To sticker equality, his car is many less years old. And that opens the door to be prohibited to diesel cars more modern than gasoline in our cities. Restrictions that, as you have been able to read, are already applied or will arrive very soon. But they do not exist. An exception (very exceptional) In recent days, social networks have been filled with messages that point to alleged prohibitions to cars with sticatin B. that is, gasoline with more than 19 years behind them but diesel with just over 10 years. But the truth is that when one goes to detail, those prohibitions They do not exist or, at most, they will be very soft restrictions that do not limit the use of the car. First, you have to understand that Since 2023 All cities with more than 50,000 inhabitants had to launch low emissions (ZBE) areas to improve air quality. But in the regulations It was not established how they should be These, who had to affect nor a punishment was established for not doing so. This has caused many municipalities to choose not to apply the measure, claiming that they needed clear orders from the government (aware that it is a measure that can negatively affect the electoral level). But it has also caused Paradoxes like Ciudad Realwhere you aspire to establish a ZBE … where all cars can access (even those who have no environmental labeling of the DGT). If we use the map that the government itself has active and select Restrictions by B labelwe will see that only the city of Segovia, Madrid and Barcelona remain active. In Madridcars with b label can circulate without problem but in the area of low emissions of special protection center center (ZBEDEP CENTER DISTRICT)they are obliged to park in a parking lot, whether public or private. It is the same restriction as when the area was called Madrid and there are no firm plans to change it. The case of Barcelona is a bit more special. Right now, all cars with stickers can circulate within the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona (AMB) without restrictions. Of course, cars with stickers B are included. The point is that The Generalitat of Catalonia has given green light to a plan to put obstacles to its use. That plan puts on the table restrictions on cars with B label from January 1, 2026 in all cities of More than 50,000 inhabitants within Catalonia as long as the anti -antamination scenarios are activated. That is, when the pollution is so high that it forces to prohibit circulation to some vehicles. It is something that It is also contemplated in Madrid In some scenarios. The protocol does contemplate the restriction of cars with B label B but as of January 1, 2028. By then, those cars will be over 14 years in the case of diesel and more than 22 years if we talk about gasoline. In Catalonia, cities with more than 50,000 inhabitants are Barcelona (and all the municipalities that already enter the AMB), Lleida, Tarragona or Girona, among others. You can consult here on this link. However, in the plan it is only specified that they will have to have a ZBE and that it must restrict the circulation to the cars with environmental label B but the size of it is not specified. That, just as it happens in the rest of the territory, has proliferated cities where Zbe barely affects a handful of streets, without substantial impact for the vast majority of drivers. That is what happens in Salamanca, the only city that Restrictions to cars with sticatin B already applies throughout Spain. However, the size is just 0.37 km2, the historical bud. Inside can access the aforementioned vehicles if they are registered in that area or if they do it outside the schedule established for the application of the ZBE: Monday to Thursday: from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays and Vespers of festive: from 7 to 23 hours. Sundays and holidays: 10 to 20 hours. Much Runrún and few prohibitions In spite of everything, in some media we continue to read that there are already prohibitions raised to cars with almost immediate application B label, as inferred in the holders. Then we leave a list of the most commented cities and what will be applied or not. Bilbao: This zbe It has a size of 2 km2 and is active from Monday to Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. In that time section, from June 15, 2025 cars with B label B of the DGT are forced to enter a parking lot (as in Madrid) but can enter with that condition until January 1, 2030. By then, these diesel cars will have at least 16 years. Estepona: This zbe It has a size of 0.49 km2 and is also located in the historic center. Here, cars with stickers B are obliged to park in a parking lot or in a hotel, as in the previous case of Bilbao. There are no more restrictions. Getafe: This zbe It has a size of 1.18 km2. Since 2025 it has the same … Read more

Last year, our country grew more than 11%while in Europe the electric car contracted 5.9%, dragged by falls in the sales of Germany (first European market by volume) of 27.4%. However, Spanish numbers They were not good If we take into account that our Portuguese neighbors enrolled more than 41,000 electric and their market share was 19.9% despite being a much smaller market. Austria, where a fifth of the cars sold in our country is sold, also exceeded 44,000 units. However, 2025 is being very different. Spain is still far from the European average.
