What cars can circulate and which ones rest on April 5

by

Saturday … restriction day. It could be a quiet day and without worries (and in fact it is for some) but it is also a day of taking a look at restrictions and being very attentive to what we have ahead. Because? Because the Sabatino does not circulate today. As you know, the program today does not circulate is devised by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) with the aim of improving the quality of the air we breathe. As? Reducing the volume of cars that circulates through the streets. Less cars, less pollution. It is a simple formula that has its implications in the atmosphere. Therefore, although painful, it is a measure that is applied 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 Having this clear and how you can see in the superior image, the does not circulate today can leave the door open to some doubts. And most of the days we are very clear how to act but what happens on Saturdays? Every day (also on Saturdays) the restrictions of today do not circulate are applied taking into account the hologram of each car and the last number of its plate. Depending on whether they are pairs or odd, they will have to rest on Saturdays. That, added to the hologram, leaves us the following three types of cars: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. So how can we avoid falling into the fines of today does not circulate sabbatino? Very simple, leaving the car at home when it touches. But you will wonder what “when it touches you.” That is what we are going to detail. Cars with Hologram 2 have to always stay at home. There is no doubt here. They are the most polluting cars and, therefore, they cannot be moved during the hours that are applied today does not circulate. On the contrary, cars with hologram 0 and 00 can circulate without problems. In this case they are cars considered as less polluting and, therefore, they can move with total freedom. Doubts can arrive with hologram 1. In that case, restrictions are rotary. The first weekend of the month, cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number rest. Next week are cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in number Par rest. And thus, week by week it is rotating. Therefore, this Saturday, April 5, 2025will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those who will have to leave their cars at home. Despite this, 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 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.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on March 29

Indeed. We are on Saturday and you know what it means: today does not circulate sabbatino. Because punctual, once again, the restrictions of this program arrive that tries to improve the quality of the air we breathe. What are we talking about? Indeed, today does not circulate and its specific restrictions on Saturdays. The project designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) Try, as we said, to improve the air we breathe with a very simple measure: leaving our cars at home. Radical or not, that must decide each one. What is true is that, where it applies, there are some cars that cannot circulate. A measure that applies to 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 Having all this in mind, everything we have to know about today is not collected in the superior image. But there are some details that are well taken into account and that may not be entirely clear. The first thing we should know is that, throughout the week, the hologram and the plate number is what defines who and when they can circulate. On Saturdays, yes, it is broken and the restrictions are the same but those affected are not always the same. This leaves us in the following situation: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. Once we have these basic concepts in mind, how can we completely dominate the Sabatino today and thus not fall into the fines for breaking it? Remember that some cars will not be able to leave home. Specifically, we talk about cars with hologram 2. In this case, the plate number does not matter, cars with hologram 2 cannot move. On the contrary, cars with hologram 0 and 00 are not necessary to take into account the plate number because they can circulate freely. So which have more problems? The cars with hologram 1. In this case, they rotate every week. Thus, the Saturday, March 29 It will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those that rotate because we are on the fifth Saturday of March. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following 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.

So many second -hand cars from Tesla have never been sold. It is the nth proof of the crisis created by Elon Musk

by

American policies have taken a 180º turn as far as electric mobility and automobile industry are concerned. In recent years we had become accustomed to fiscal incentives for the purchase of electric cars and their production in North America. In just a few months, Donald Trump has confirmed what we already suspected: is determined to end it. First eliminating tax incentives To buy an electric car, a project that is still underway and that would eliminate the subsidy of 7,500 euros for the purchase of cars of this type. Second with the imposition of 25% tariffs to everything that between its borders. Joe Biden’s government made the Inflation reduction lawin which they contemplated Fiscal aid to those who produce in the country but also to those who centralize their production in North America, including Mexico and Canada with whom the United States has a special commercial treaty. However, the tariffs approved by the new Government of Donald Trump will tax with 25% all cars or pieces for the manufacture of them that enter through their borders, including these last two countries. Curiously, Tesla benefits of both measures. It is not that he draws a direct benefit on them, the problem for the competition is that it affects them more than the company of Elon Musk. Tesla leads in the sale of electric cars in the United States with solvency since they have the best autonomy/price ratio and A supercargators’ own network. Two key aspects in a country with a network of poor loaders. Secondly because they are the only ones that manufacture in the United States all the electric cars that sell in the country. Yeah, Elon Musk has gone to x to throw balls out And say that Tesla will also be affected by tariffs but, of course, It will be to a lesser extent that those who manufacture outside the borders of the United States. And, despite everything, Tesla have to demonstrate that he can keep holding rhythm. Good for the political positions of Donald Trump or because the company begins to find its roof, more and more Tesla electric cars are more in the second -hand market. In fact, according to Reutersthey have never been so much. A second -hand market that is a reflection of much more So many Tesla had never put themselves in the second -hand market in the United States. Is what he states Reuters. The Communication Agency has used the data of Edmundsa well-known portal of second-hand cars in the country. The agency indicates that last month, Tesla represented 1.4% of the transactions that were carried out on the platform. It does not seem a figure too high if it were not because in the same month last year they barely represented 0.4%. That is, in February 2025 they were sold three times more second -hand tesla That a year ago. From the Purchase Portal, they point out that the data is a reflection of how “loyalty to the brand is being reduced (…) Elon Musk’s public participation in the government, concerns about Tesla depreciation and saturation in metropolitan areas are making some owners Insights of Edmunds. The depreciation of cars that have been put on the market, for the moment, has not been felt significantly, collect in Motorpasion. However, they are echoing the notices of the portal itself that warn that if the trend is maintained if they should be noticed very soon. The company is immersed in a Huge image crisis Derived from Elon Musk’s policies, their public appearances and their comments on social networks. Since the new president of the United States took the direction of the country we have seen the Tesla CEO Make Nazi greeting, show off the sound of deportation chains either say goodbye to thousands of people of the American public administration. All this has led to a Boicot to the companywith manifestations, attacks on concessionaires and even a bit more imaginative proposals (such as projecting images In the Tesla factory in Berlin either In Cybertruck themselves) that have been more numerous in France, Germany and, of course, the United States. That image crisis may be deriving in a Substantial Sales Fall of new cars and in the appearance of cars in second -hand portals, although more time is needed To verify to what extent is a trend or it is an internal and structural issue of the company, with a delay in the enrollments due to the arrival of the renewed Tesla Model and. What is palpable is that the disenchantment with the brand has been accentuated over time and, especially, during the last weeks. We have owners who have “disguised” their teslas as vehicles from other companies and, above all, we have a good handful of influencers publishing the sale of their electric cars. Already in September 2024, Automotive News He collected the tendency that Tesla’s owners began to put their cars embarrassed by Elon Musk’s statements during the US elections campaign. These decisions have been extended until they reach personalities with a large public speaker in the United States. From singer Sheryl Crow to actors like Jason Bateman. As we say, to finish understanding these manifestations and that media speaker is generating a real impact On Tesla’s sales we should see how the months continue to advance and check what real impact the arrival of Tesla Model Y. What is certain is that the company has a real problem to sell other vehicles, such as Cybertruck. And also that the number of vehicles in the second -hand market seems to be growing very substantially. Photo | Robbie and Maxim In Xataka | Tesla sold less cars in 2024 than in 2023. It is his first fall in many years despite the fact that he did everything possible to avoid it

There is only a clear winner with the new 25% tariffs to all cars not manufactured in the US: Tesla, of course

by

After repeatedly threatening, Donald Trump has ended up approving a 25% tariff to all cars That they enter through its borders. It doesn’t matter if the car is manufactured in Europe, Brazil or Mexico or Canada (with whom it has a special economic framework). The Unique free road For the import of the car to be a bit cheaper is that it has US components. If the car, for example, It is manufactured in Mexico It will not pay tariffs for the part corresponding to the pieces originating in the United States. The same if, for example, it is manufactured in the United States but its engines arrive from one of these two neighboring countries. In that case, it will only be paid for that little part. The impact of the measure will be high for consumers. It is estimated that cars will be more expensive Between $ 4,000 and $ 12,000depending on the value of the same and the presence of US components inside. The measure has as an evident intention to attract the production of cars to the country. Keep in mind that, According to the White Housein 2024 16 million cars were bought in the United States. From them, half came from outside their borders. And they ensure that, of the eight million manufactured in the United States, 50% of its components also came from outside “and is probably closer to 40%,” according to their calculations. Among the main affected by the measure, Bloomberg name Volkswagen to export to the United States 80% of its sales in the country. They are followed by Hyundai-Kia (65%), Mercedes (63%), Renault-Nissan-Mitusbishi, BMW and Toyota (which are also above 50%). But, of course, raise these tariffs He also has winners. One of them is Ford that only matters 21% of the cars he sells in the country. The figure is lower than that of Honda (35%) or General Motors (45%), some of its great rivals. Although, of course, the biggest beneficiary is Tesla. Tesla, the great beneficiary Since the application of these new tariffs were confirmed, all eyes have been put in Tesla. Elon Musk, CEO of the company and one of the most relevant men in this second mandate of Donald Trump, has not hesitated to throw balls out from his X account. Click on the image to go to the original tweet In response to an X user who showed that Tesla would win with the new tariffs, Elon Musk has responded that “it is important to note that Tesla has not been unscathed from this problem. The impact of tariffs on Tesla remains significant.” Click on the image to go to the original tweet The answer contrasts with the publications that the company itself has been doing in X. On March 23, Tesla presumed to have the most cars Made in America of the market. Keep in mind that the electric car company has been in the spotlight Since the role of Elon Musk was confirmed in the new United States government. The decisions that have been made They have affected less to the Musk company than to the rest of its rivals. Its leader position in the market It benefits you when taking the aid for the purchase of electric cars and even your own Donald Trump has campaigned In favor of the company in response to The attacks that Tesla has received inside and outside the United States. In Electreck They specify that presenting Tesla as winners is something like being the one -eyed in the country of the blind. “It doesn’t matter how Tesla fans or, more specifically, Tesla’s shareholders are trying to frame this. It is not good for anyone, including Tesla.” They point out that although the company assembles its cars in the United States, steel and aluminum used comes from outside the country’s borders. 25% of its components arrive from Mexico “And an not specified amount from Canada.” Despite this, it is evident that the impact on their accounts will be lower than on their rivals. Everything that involves an important increase in its rivals is beneficial for the company whose price should also be higher but will be more ease to absorb it partially or totally. They point out in The New York Times that Tesla has been losing land in recent months in front of the Chevrolet Equinox EV and the Ford Mustang Mach-E. Both are models that are manufactured in Mexico and, therefore, they should see their price increased to a greater extent than the Tesla Model Y. Of the best selling electric cars In the United States last year, Hyundai He began to manufacture Its ioniq 5 in the United States last year but produces its batteries (the most expensive element in the car) In South Korea. The Honda Prologue is assembled in Mexico. And cars such as Volkswagen ID.7 or the Porsche Taycan. It is these last companies, which do not produce their cars in the United States, the ones that will have the most problems to compete in price with Tesla models, they point out in The New York Times. They put Volkswagen as an example that only manufactures the Volkswagen ID.4 in the United States Audi and Porsche that export all their vehicles From Mexico or Europe. The same happens to Toyota that although it does assemble numerous cars in the United States, it exports more than half of its sales volume. According to some analysts to BloombergToyota’s operational benefit can be reduced by 6% and more than half in the case of Nissan that It was already going through serious difficulties In the country.

In Europe the rearme quotes up and cars. And a Basque Components factory wants to take advantage of it

by

When Europe announced the need of a “rearme”hardly someone could have guessed the sector that has seen in the proposal a formula to put the leg: the engine. First it was Germany Through the Almighty Rheinmetall, the largest defense contractor in the nation. Things are so quite well that it has set the car industry and its factories to continue producing armament without rest. Even Volkswagen is in the equation. Now the turn of Spain has reached. Industrial conversion. I told it This week five days. Before the structural stagnation of the European automobile sector, several Spanish component companies have begun to look towards the defense industry as a path of diversification (and survival). The first of these stops takes us to the Basque Country, where Teknia (Basque manufacturer of car components) has been one of the first actors to openly manifest Your interest in manufacturing pieces For military applications, in a context where, as we said, Europe is in full Rearme process motivated by Russian threat and Strategic distancing of the United States. The company argues that, while the automotive has been excluded from the group of strategic sectors in Europe, defense and aerospace They have received that recognitionwhich, added to the regulatory hardening and the fall in the demand for vehicles, forces to explore new opportunities for Keep facilities alive industrialists From the civil vehicle to the military. The newspaper explained something we already said weeks ago. The transition from the automotive sector to the military is, in many cases, technically and logistically viable. The reasoning is clear: the armies also use vehicles, and many of the technologies of forming, stamping or injection applicable in the automotive They can easily adapt to the production of military units, whether trucks, armored or mobile logistics systems. This logic is backed by cases such as Ivecocompany with two floors in Spain, which already has a division dedicated exclusively to the defense business. For the Spanish Government, the use of its large ecosystem of suppliers of automotive components appears as a Fast and efficient route to climb your productive capacity in military. Germany as an epicenter. And here we return to the beginning of everything. As we explain In mid -March, in Germany this industrial reconversion process is in a more advanced stage. Rheinmetall, one of the main European arms groups, has expressed interest in The plant that Volkswagen It has in Osnabrück, affected by a drastic restructuring. In 2024, the automobile group announced the Elimination of 35,000 jobs and one Reduction of its capacity Annual production in Germany, which will go from 734,000 vehicles to a substantially lower figure by 2030. Rheinmetalll in full. This setback in the German industry coincides with the stock market of Rheinmetall, whose actions are They have revalued 122.2% So far this year, promoted by the urgency of European rearmament before The Russian threat and Berlin’s commitment to increase your investment In defense. The paradox is revealing: the industrial wound of the heart from Europe could cater thanks to Geopolitical fear already one New arms race. Employment, production and integration. It is another leg that explains the movement. The defense industry not only represents an alternative of economic sustainability for automotive companies (now in Spain), but also offers a Multiplier effect in terms of employment and technological development. Explained in five days that an eloquent example is that of CMBDA European Onsorciospecialized in missile systems, which has significantly increased its workforce: it hired 2,600 people in 2024, reaching The 19,000 employeesand plans to add another 2,500 hiring in the current exercise. Despite its presence in many of the great European economies, MBDA still does not have plants in Spain, although its CEO seems to have made it clear that this could change, which underlines the country’s appeal in the new industrial map of the European defense. Structural transformation. Thus, what is at stake is not a simple business diversification, but something more similar to a structural transformation that could alter the nature of the European industry. The conversion of plants, the reuse of existing technical capacities and the reorientation of human resources could allow the countries of the European Union not only to strengthen their strategic autonomy in defense, but also keep alive industrial structures otherwise, they would run the risk of deteriorating with the decline of traditional automotive. No doubt, this evolution is not exempt from challenges, but offers a pragmatic response to the slowdown of a sector in crisis and the urgency of a continental reload. From the car to artillery. It is still an industrial paradigm. What in another context could have been a without exit crisis, it is currently emerging as a window of opportunity. At a time when European security is again in the Political agenda centereven with unusual ads collection for 72 hoursand when the economic model based on the private car It seems to lose pushthe reconversion of the automotive sector Towards defense It appears as a realistic, productive and politically viable solution. They said it in The five -day report Through the implicit words of the sector: it does not matter if the machinery manufactures a chassis for a sedan or a structure for a armored. Here the essential thing is that it continues to work. Thus, from the ashes of the engine, a new industry can flourish, although this time at the service of European sovereignty.

will impose 25% cars tariffs manufactured outside the country

by

Donald Trump announced this Wednesday their intention to impose new tariffs on Imported cars. The measure is part of its aggressive economic strategy and could open a new front of tensions with neighboring countries and the European Union. From the Oval office, the former president said that he will apply 25% tariff to “all cars that are not manufactured in the United States”, starting from the current 2.5% base. In their own words, these new tariffs will join the existing ones. Entry into force. Although the announcement is already official, the new measures will not be applied immediately. The tariffs will enter into force on April 2, date that will also mark the beginning of the reciprocal measures long announced by the president. The “great three.” Trump said he had addressed the issue with the main car manufacturers in the country – Ford, General Motors and Stellantis. In his own words, the message was clear: “If you don’t have factories here, you will have to start and build them.” Increased price in sight. As Tax Foundation points outtariffs work, in practice, as taxes applied to imported products. That extra cost usually falls to importers, which in most cases transfer it directly to the final consumer. Impact on exporters. If brands that manufacture cars outside the US fail to absorb the additional cost of tariffs, They could lose ground in front of local options. In that scenario, consumers would tend to choose vehicles produced within the country. The US imports many cars. Although the automobile industry is part of the United States industrial DNA, the country depends largely on imports. Almost half of the cars sold in the United States come from abroad, which amplifies the impact of new tariffs. According to 2024 data from World’s Top Exportsthese are the main exporting countries and their weight in imports in the country. Mexico: 22.8% Japan: 18.6% South Korea: 17.3% Canada: 12.9% Germany: 11.7% First reactions. Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, has said in x which deeply regrets the US decision to impose tariffs on European automotive exports. He also says that “the EU will continue to seek negotiated solutions, but protecting their economic interests.” Images | The White House | Yannis Zaugg In Xataka | In full tariff war with the US, Mexico has had an idea: to manufacture its own “cheap” electric cars

make their own “cheap” electric cars

by

Donald Trump promised many things during his electoral campaign. Put up legs The country’s renewable energy projects, turn around Bet on electric cars by government institutions, tariffs for … practically all and start the Mexican automotive industry for return it to the United States. Mexico’s response is Olinia, the first national brand of cheap electric cars with prices that start from 4,800 euros to change. They are already looking for the ideal plant to turn it into a reality, but there is a problem: it is an ambitious project and the road will not be simple. Repatriating that it is gerund. During the electoral campaign, the Magnate and US president made it clear that one of his main policies during his second term would revolve around protectionism. The President highlighted that “is over” the time when companies were implemented in other countries, causing unemployment in the United States. It is something that concerns several industries, being the automaker one of the ones that will most notice the effect of these policies and the one Trump has alluded directly. “I don’t want cars manufactured in Canada. I don’t want cars manufactured in Mexico. They have been doing well, but now I want the automotive to manufacture here,” said the president, said, Continuing With that promise to return the golden moment in the automotive production that the country lived a few decades ago. Duty. The way to do it is through tariffs. The president’s idea is that, through those 25% tariffs To products imported from Mexico or Canada, manufacturers are rethinking manufacturing outside the US territory. Something that they will have to clarify is how these tariffs apply, since, as stated The New York Timesthere are cars that are assembled in Mexico or Canada, but most of its components are manufactured in the United States. There are also opposite cases, with most pieces made of their borders, but with the final vehicle assembled in US territory. He TOYOTA RAV4 It is an example of the first while the Nissan Rogue enters the second stage. Beyond the Americans. And it is logical to think that US companies such as Ford (which operates three floors in Mexico and exports tens of thousands of cars each year to the United States) or General Motors (more than 750,000 vehicles produced in Canada and Mexico went to the US in 2024) would be the most interested, but really tariffs They will affect all companies. BMW, Honda, Mazda, Kia, Nissan, the Stellantis, Toyota, Audi or Volkswagen group have their main plants in the region in Mexico, where they use thousands of people and where they produce hundreds of thousands of units that They will stop to the US market. And this is not theory: cases of non -American companies are already being seen moving for fear of tariffs. Consequences. For example, Honda has decided produce its new hybrid civic in Indiana instead of in Mexico. Hyundai also has just announced an investment of 21,000 million dollars in four years in the United States, including a steel plant of 5.8 billion dollars in Louisiana. And it could not be clearer: “All these efforts will accelerate the location of our supply chain in the US, will expand our operations and increase our US workforce,” They affirmed From the brand. They also commented that the plant would create 1,300 jobs. As we read in EFETrump did not hesitate to congratulate himself after these decisions of two of the largest companies in the sector. “This investment clearly demonstrates that tariffs work wonderfully. Hyundai will produce steel in the United States and manufacture their cars in this country, so you will not have to pay tariffs. You already know: there are no tariffs if products are manufactured in the United States,” he said. Olinia. Does the infrastructure have the US to produce those hundreds of thousands of cars? It is something that Time will saybut given the possible disruption of companies, Mexico already has a plan. Olinia, in the language Nahuatlit means “to move”, and it is the name of the electric car project that Claudia Sheinbaum’s government presented A few weeks ago. Roberto Capuano is the project coordinator and, as he commented during the project debut, Olinia will be the launch of three vehicles for 2030: A small one for the personal mobility of young people and mothers who take their children to school, as an alternative to the purchase of a motorcycle. One for mobility in the neighborhood. One for merchandise distribution companies of last mile. The objective is that they are affordable electric cars, with prices of between 90,000 and 150,000 pesos depending on the model (between 4,800 and 8,000 euros), with attractive financing plans so that “electric mobility is available to all Mexicans”. The challenge of lithium. Olinia is the consecration of that comment that Sheinbaum herself already did in October 2024 when Tesla moved away her new gigafactoría of Mexican lands, but the problem is that it will not be so easy to make a 100% Made in Mexico electric car. The medium Rest of World He was able to talk to a local Tesla service manager who has asked to remain anonymous, but who has left some interesting ideas on the table. While commenting that producing such a car is an interesting concept, he said that the Olinia project is so ambitious that it will represent technical, economic and logistics difficulties. Now they produce more than three million cars a year, being 80% for the United States, but one thing is that factories are from others … and another very different than you who has control of all the components of a car. The budget for technology, science and innovation is The smallest Since 2008, the public load infrastructure is poor (being most of it in private residences) and there is an even greater problem: although Mexico has important lithium reserves, crucial component to produce batteries, It does not produce it at an industrial scale.

A review of the cars of the millionaires Tech

by

Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg or Jeff Bezos have enough money as to drive any car that seems to them. However, not all of them demonstrate an excessive passion through the motor world and, for security reasonsvery few of them are allowed to drive their own cars. Some must settle for appreciating the beauty of their collections of supercar exposed as art pieces in His luxurious garages. Since these technological magnates were not always as rich as they are now, they have also led utilities without so many power horses, but with many more kilometers more behind them. We discovered what cars the heavyweights of technology have led throughout their lives. Elon Musk: Hurdly to arrive As expected, Tesla’s CEO is a big fan of its own vehicles. In 2019, Musk revealed in his X account That his favorite was the Tesla Model S Performance, although he has also led a Model 3 Performance and his security team usually uses the Model X for their displacements. Also assured have driven a Cybertruck after its launch. However, Musk’s passion for cars is not limited to Tesla. Your collection is much more varied. According The published by GQOne of his first cars was a BMW 310Iof 1978. With the first money he obtained with the investment round of ZIP2, the first company he founded with his brother Kimbal, Musk bought a Jaguar E-Type 1 Roadster Series, according to Walter Isaacson in The last biography of the millionaire. Nevertheless, The most representative Because of its meaning, McLaren F1 bought in 1999. The car was valued at more than one million dollars and acquired it after selling ZIP2 to Compaq for 307 million dollars, officially becoming a millionaire. The moment when he received that car I am immortalized In a video. “There are only 62 around the world and one of them is now mine,” said a very young Musk. Later, Musk would crash that car on a Los Angeles highway when he tried to show Peter Thiel that he was not afraid to risk during the merger process of his companies to give rise to PayPal. “It was a miracle that neither of them was injured,” assured Thiel a The New York Times. Jeff Bezos: The pragmatic Jeff Bezos is the second greatest fortune in the world, but one of the cars with which he is most related is neither a supercar nor a luxurious Berlina: it is a Honda Accord of 1991, at the same time that Amazon had an estimated capitalization of 30,000 million dollars and its fortune was about 1,000 million dollars. Like Bezos confessed At 60 minutes, “it’s a very good car.” Bezos drove that car until 2013 to go to Amazon offices. However, the millionaire treasures an impressive collection of exclusive supercar among which, according to Autobildthere is a Ferrari Sergio of limited edition of which there are only six copies; and a Bugatti Veyron link customized by the Mansory coach. Much more exotic is the Lykan Hypersport of the Lebanese W Motors, like the one who participated in one of the scenes of the saga of ‘Fast & Furious’ jumping between two skyscrapers. Nor is a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevitavalued at more than four million euros, and a special edition of the Lamborghini Venenoof which there are only six units in the world. In recent years, the millionaire has been seen driving Rivian electric vehicles, after Amazon became its largest shareholder buying 17% of the electric car manufacturer to make it its main DISTRIBUTION VEHICLE SUPPLIER.

Punctual like every week. Like every Saturday. As the child who gets up at seven in the morning and wakes you up on your rest day … here comes the Sabatino today. The fact that? Yes, the special restrictions of today do not circulate, the project designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) thought to reduce polluting emissions present in the atmosphere. And, of course, the one who forces some cars at home. This is because the operation It is very simple: if there are fewer cars there will be less air pollution. As simple as forcing the most polluting vehicles to circulate less. Remember, yes, we talk about a project that does not apply throughout the country. Specifically, it is underway 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 have all this clear … What do we have to know about today? Basically, as you can check above, every day a vehicle rests, with the aim of restrictions are rotary. During the week, it is the hologram and plate number that defines who and when they can circulate. However, On Saturdays they rotate And the restrictions are not always the same. This leaves us in the following situation: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. Clarified the basic concepts, what do we have to be clear about the Sabatino today? Basically, that all drivers are affected in one way or another but, of course, not in the same way. This is because cars with hologram 0 and 00 may circulate freely and without fear of any type of restrictions. On the contrary, cars with hologram 2 will not be able to leave home or move any Saturday. We could say that they are the two sides of the same currency. And what about Hologram 1? That rotate. Thus, depending on the Saturday in which we find ourselves they can circulate one or the other. This restriction is decided with the latest plate number. In this case, in the Saturday March 22as we are on the fourth Saturday of the month, it will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in even number those that remain at home. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following 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.

However, until now he had no links with traditional manufacturers. If the agreement is specified, it will take a key step in its Diversification strategy.
