the estimated date on which you will have your musical summary of the year

by

Let’s tell you What date is Spotify Wrapped 2025 expected?or at least the time frame in which it usually comes out in previous years. It is that summary that shows you in slides the songs, artists or musical styles that you have listened to the most in 2025. Spotify is the most popular music streaming platform, so there are many people who want to be able to see and share the statistics of everything you have been listening to. Of course, remember that these are not statistics for the entire year, but rather they normally only count until the beginning of November. Please note that As soon as Wrapped 2025 comes out we will have a publication on Xataka to let you know and explain how it works and what it offers. When does Wrapped 2025 come out? There is no specific date for the launch of Spotify Wrapped, that is the first thing you should be clear about. However, by knowing when it has been released in recent years you can get an idea of ​​when you can expect this one to arrive, or at least a fairly narrow time frame in which it should happen. Last year Wrapped was released on December 4, which fell on a Monday. But the previous year it happened on November 29, which fell on a Wednesday, but that doesn’t mean anything because every year it is on a different date. The normal thing is that it is in the last week of November or the first week of Decemberso it must be already falling. Looking at this year’s calendar, it seems logical that Wrapped will fall again in the first week of December, between November 30 and December 4. If they do it on Monday the 30th, they would match a move similar to last year’s by doing it on a Monday, and to that of the previous year by waiting until the last day of November. Maybe Spotify decides to go ahead and release it in the previous week, it has happened before, but It seems less likely that they will wait until the second of December. Although you never know in these things. To view these statistics you will need to be a paying user and have an active subscription. To access the statistics you have to enter the website spotify.com/es/wrappedwhich is where the visualizations will begin. But you won’t be able to access the statistics until it is officially launched.

Volkswagen has presented its “most intelligent car to date” in China. The trick is that Volkswagen hasn’t done it

by

Volkswagen prepares the launch of the ID. UNYX 08an electric SUV developed together with the Chinese firm Xpeng that will hit the market in 2026. For years, Volkswagen enjoyed a large presence in China. However, currently, firms such as Xiaomi or BYD have overtaken them to the right with their proposals and technology. The German group has had no choice but join forces with the Chinese Xpeng to continue competing in this very competitive market. And the greatest exponent of this alliance is this same car of which we are going to tell you all the details. Strategy to come back in China. The German brand has lost positions in this market since 2020, when electric vehicles began their massive expansion in the country. Now it is trying to recover the lost ground against local manufacturers such as BYD and Geely through this technological alliance with Xpengwhich provides its G9 platform and its connectivity and driving assistance systems. Design speed. The ID. UNYX 08 was completed in 30 months, a time that according to Volkswagen It is more than 30% lower than usual. This acceleration responds to what the company calls “Chinese speed”, a concept that reflects its need to adapt to the pace of the local market. The German manufacturer affirms having managed to “fully integrate into China’s automotive ecosystem” thanks to local alliances and its own research and development capabilities. The figures of the new SUV. The vehicle measures 5 meters long, 1,954 meters wide and between 1,672 and 1,688 meters high, with a wheelbase of 3,030 meters. These dimensions exceed those of the Xpeng G9, the model on whose platform it was built. It will be available in two configurations: a 230 kW rear motor or dual motor with 140 kW front and 230 kW rear. will ride LFP batteries from CATL, with a range of more than 700 kilometers according to the CLTC cycle, and will support 800-volt fast charging. Technology at the service of the Chinese driver. The ID. UNYX 08 will incorporate L2++ level driving assistance with the capacity for autonomous operation “from parking to parking” both in the city and on highways. It will also have OTA (Over-the-Air) updates and an artificial intelligence assistant based on advanced language models. Volkswagen presents it as “its most intelligent model to date.” The plan to get back into the fight. This SUV is the first of the two models agreed between Volkswagen and Xpeng in 2023. It will be assembled in collaboration with Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group, a partner with which Volkswagen created its first joint venture in China in 2017 dedicated exclusively to new energy vehicles. The ID family. UNYX, which already includes the 06 (a compact SUV) and the recently unveiled 07 (an electric sedan), thus expands into the medium-large SUV segment. What’s at stake. For Volkswagen, this launch represents much more than a new product: it is a litmus test on its ability to compete with Chinese manufacturers in its own territory. The Asian market has become the main battlefield of electromobility worldwide, and the German brand needs to demonstrate that it can offer cutting-edge technology without losing its identity. We’ll see if the ID. UNYX 08 convinces drivers in China. If you do so, it will set the course of your strategy in the country.

Toyota Hilux (2026): features, photos, date

by

toyota has presented the ninth generation of its iconic Hilux pick-upa historic and world-famous vehicle that, for the first time in its almost 60-year history, this legendary all-terrain vehicle will have a 100% electric version. The Japanese company has chosen to place the electric variant as the absolute protagonist of the launch, a decision that reflects the brand’s strategic shift towards electrification. However, it should be noted that this new generation will also accept other engines. Under these lines we tell you everything. A renewed design inspired by the Land Cruiser After a decade with the previous generation, the new Hilux arrives with substantial changes to its image. According to manufacturer, the exterior design was developed under the “resistant and agile” concept, projecting a more imposing presence with new front proportions and slim headlights connected by a central bar that bears the Toyota name in classic style. For the European market, Toyota has made the decision to only offer the double cab body, eliminating other configurations and thus listening to the requests of its customers in the region. As for the interior, it undergoes a complete transformation, with clear influence from the new Land Cruiser. The center console adopts a horizontal design that integrates two 12.3-inch screens: one for the digital instrumentation and the other for the multimedia system. All all-wheel drive and off-road driving controls are grouped centrally for easy access. The electric version stars in the new generation of Hilux The Hilux BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) has two electric motors, one per axle, powered by a 59.2 kWh lithium-ion battery. The front motor develops 205 Nm of torque, while the rear motor reaches 268.6 Nm, providing permanent all-wheel drive. According to preliminary data of Toyota prior to the final homologation, the approximate range is 240 kilometers under the WLTP cycle. This figure, modest compared to other current electric vehicles, may end up being enough for those who use the pickup in rural environments, or for short trips to work. The payload capacity is estimated at around 715 kg, while the towing capacity reaches 1,600 kg. toyota assures that the battery is specially protected against damage and water infiltration, maintaining the same wading depth as the combustion versions. The brand promises “segment-leading” charging capabilities to minimize vehicle downtime, although it has not specified charging powers or whether it will be compatible with direct current fast charging. Microhybridization, combustion and hydrogen on the horizon The Hilux with technology microhybrid 48V, which was already introduced in the current generation during 2025, will surely end up becoming the version with the highest sales volume in Europe. This variant combines a 48V battery located under the rear seats with the 2.8-liter diesel engine, offering a load capacity of up to one ton and towing capacity of 3,500 kg. Its arrival is scheduled for spring 2026. For Eastern European markets, Toyota will maintain internal combustion engines without electrification: the 2.8-liter diesel (which replaces the 2.4-liter) and the 2.7-liter gasoline engine. Toyota has confirmed that a version equipped with hydrogen fuel cellreaffirming the company’s commitment to this technology as a source of clean energy and its commitment to promoting the development of hydrogen infrastructure in Europe. Technology and security This generation incorporates electric power steering for the first time in a Hilux, which according to Toyota offers more direct handling, better maneuverability and less risk of bouncing when driving on uneven terrain. The Toyota T-Mate safety and driving assistance equipment is considerably expanded, including new functions such as low-speed acceleration suppression, emergency stop system and safe exit assistant, among others. In addition, the system will support updates via remote connection. Date and availability The new Toyota Hilux will go on sale in Europe next December, starting with the electric version. The diesel microhybrid, which is expected to be the most in demand here, will arrive in spring 2026. There are still no details on its price, so we will have to wait to learn more information about it. Images | toyota In Xataka | Europe is eager for cheap electric cars.

Something big is coming in European money. The ECB has set a date for a key step towards the digital euro

by

The European Central Bank has made a move in one of the most sensitive projects in its recent history. After two years of preparation, the organization has decided to move on to the next phase of the digital eurothe initiative with which it seeks to adapt public money to the era of electronic payments. It is not a launch, nor a final decision: if the European regulations are approved in 2026, there will be a pilot starting in 2027 and the Eurosystem wants to be ready for a possible first emission in 2029. The decision comes after a preparation stage started in November 2023in which the ECB and the national central banks defined the technical and operational pillars of the project. In these two years, progress was made in the draft of the operating regulations, in the selection of technological suppliers and in tests with market participants. Political momentum has also been key: euro leaders called at the October 2025 summit to accelerate work to ensure that Europe retains its own capacity in digital payments. A pilot to get out of paper. The announced step opens a phase aimed at validating that the system can work in practice, both from a technical point of view and from real use. The ECB talks about a pilot in which Banks, technology providers, businesses and consumers would participate, with tests on payments in everyday situations and security controls. The objective is to verify that the digital euro, if it exists, can operate reliably and offer a simple experience for the user. Despite the progress, this does not mean that the digital euro is ready for launch or that it will replace paper money. The institution emphasizes that the cash will continue to exist and that the project requires legislative support before any final decision. Furthermore, it is neither a decentralized token nor an experiment to displace the banking sector. The proposed architecture, they assure, maintains banks as the main access and operation channel for citizens and businesses. Three points before starting. The digital euro roadmap is supported by three conditions: legislative progress, technical validation and the formal decision of the ECB later. The European Regulation will establish the rights, limits and obligations of the system, including the way in which financial institutions participate. In parallel, the architecture will be deployed in modules to adjust development as results are obtained. Nothing in this phase implies committing unlimited resources or guarantees the final emission. A project that still needs to convince. Initial support for the digital euro is not homogeneous across Europe. In Germany, a survey prepared for the Bundesbank In April 2024 it showed that half of citizens “could imagine using it” and that 41% already knew about the project. In Spain, a study by Monitor Deloitte In 2024, it indicated that 61% would not adopt it for now, largely due to lack of knowledge and satisfaction with current methods. At European level, a survey published by BEUC In 2025, it indicated that privacy is a priority for 81% of those surveyed, along with security and the absence of commissions as essential elements. From now on, progress will be as technical as it is political. As we say, the ECB wants to have the pieces ready for a pilot in 2027 and to consider a possible initial emission in 2029, provided that the European regulation is approved and tests confirm its viability. The process will be gradual and reviewable, and therein lies its importance: Europe is preparing for an option that could expand its autonomy in payments Images | ECB | omid armin In Xataka | The world seemed unprepared for the end of cash.

The border between Morocco and Algeria was closed in 1994. 30 years later, the fight threatens to claim its most unexpected piece: the date

by

A strong, dry, accurate blow is enough. Only one, in the center of the chest. When this happens, the diaphragm contracts violently and the body exhales all the air it has inside: the person is temporarily unable to inhale. That is exactly what happened to the international date market on October 10, 2025: it was left breathless. And the reason was a misunderstanding. That and a very long diplomatic conflict that always ends up affecting Spain. What has happened? October 10. The advice of GIDattes (the Tunisian interprofessional date group) published a statement in which the start of exports was announced of dates. Business as usual, really. But they added a clarification that set off all the alarms: “to all markets except the Moroccan one.” In a matter of hours, everyone interpreted that Tunisia was vetoing the export of these fruits to the west. October 13 and 14. Given the widespread noise and uncertainty in the sector, the GIDattes He clarified that there was no type of exclusion. Simply put, as it is the main export market, These required a special calendar that would be approved on October 20. October 19, 20 and 21. But it was too late, the Moroccan employers’ associations and producer groups had smelled blood. For the first time in years, there was a 20% chance (19.7% in 2024) of the dates consumed by the country would disappear from the equation: the profits for local producers would be enormous. October 21. After the meeting on the 20th, the Tunisian press reported that there would indeed be exports to Morocco at the end of October: “like every year“. What does Algeria have to do with all this? Moroccan farmers have gone directly to where it hurts most: they have accused Tunisian dates of be Algerian. It is, moreover, a classic accusation of the Moroccan countryside. Something that no one can completely rule out (due to the traditional traceability deficits of the Maghreb), but that no one really takes seriously. Although it is not going through its best moment, Tunisia is a giant in the world of dates. He doesn’t need Algeria at all. But Algeria is a sensitive issue in the western end of North Africa. A little context. The historical enmity between Morocco and Algeria can be traced back to the very independence of these territories: border disputes ended up leading to the War of the Sands of 1963 and, above all, in the Algerian support for the Polisario Front in Western Sahara. In 94, an attack in Marrakech (in which two Spaniards died) caused a diplomatic conflict that closed the enormous land border between both countries. They have not been reopened and, in fact, in 2021, diplomatic and commercial relations they are broken. Suffice it to say that, if the accusations of the Moroccan producers are confirmed, the Tunisian date would disappear from the markets of the Alawite state. Why is all this so important? This has had an impact on the international date market because, although Tunisia is in the doldrums (and Saudi Arabia has overtaken it in recent years) it is still the second country in date exports. A decision such as that of vetoing the largest importer of dates in the world, Morocco, would have caused a violent restructuring of commercial networks around the globe. To all this we must add a key fact: the third country in date exports, Israel. Today (with or without a peace agreement) no one knows exactly what will happen to the tens of thousands of tons that the Hebrew country puts on the market each year. And that, logically, generates even more uncertainty. The important thing is in the details. In dates, for example. In recent days Steve Witkof and Jared Kushner (Trump’s special envoys) revealed that they were working to reach an agreement between Morocco and Algeria that would solve the Sahara issue. It is quite possible: the US president’s obsession with ‘ending all the world’s wars’ may have put a conflict like this in the spotlight. One, furthermore, that involves a traditional ally of Washington. However, dates show us that everything is more complicated than it seems. Is the delicate balance of the Mediterranean about to be blown up? We will see it in the coming months.

There is already a date for the last flight of the Megacohete Starship as we know it: v3, heat what you go out

by

Spacex is ready to move on to the next chapter. Elon Musk’s company has announced the eleventh date Starship test flight: The last launch of the current version of the rocket, which will give way to a new iteration much more powerful. Next Monday, October 13, it could be the day we see the Starship V2 furrow the heavens for the last time. Starship’s 11 flight is here. As Ha confirmed Spacexthe launch window will open at 18:15 CT (01:15 in the morning of Tuesday 14 during Spanish peninsular schedule). As usual, the company will broadcast the live flight from Starbase through its website and its X profile, starting the broadcast about 30 minutes before takeoff. This eleventh flight will not be a simple repetition of the previous one (The first successful after a failure streak). In addition to serving as a final brooch for the second version of Starship, it will make a test bench for technologies that will be implemented in the expected V3. Spacex plans to bring both the Super Heavy propeller and the Starship ship with a series of experiments designed to collect data for future releases. A goodbye in style. Flight 11 will have as its protagonist the Super Heavy 15 propeller, which had already blown successfully during flight 8. 24 of its 33 engines will take off for the second … and last time. For this launch, the Super Heavy will try a new configuration in the landing maneuver. Instead of the three usual raptor engines, it will turn on five during its final phase, which will be the standard configuration in the Super Heavy V3 for a matter of redundancy. But the objective is not to recover it for the second time with the arms of the tower, but simulate a soft ametering about the Gulf of Mexico to study the dynamics of the vehicle during the complex transitions of off and ignition of landing engines. Another starship to the limit. The Starship ship has an agenda similar to that of the previous flight. On its suborbital trip, it will deploy eight Starlink satellite simulators and turn one of its engines again in the emptiness of the space, practicing for future orbital insertion maneuvers. Perhaps the most striking is the stress test to which its thermal shield will be submitted. Spacex has deliberately retired several ceramic tiles, including some critical areas that lack a secondary protection layer, to see how they behave during the reentry. The final trajectory will include a banqueo of the ship to imitate the approach that the future Starship will make when returning to the launch base. The shocking, if everything goes as planned, will be again in the Indian Ocean, in broad daylight. The generational jump V2 to V3. As he points out Next Spaceflightthis flight will be the last one for Starship version 2 and for the current Starbase launch platform configuration. Spacex prepares to welcome the Starship V3. The differences between versions are significant. While the V2, with its 123 meters high, can put about 35 tons in low orbit, the V3 will grow slightly to 124.4 meters, firing its useful load capacity up to 100 tons. The thrust at the time of takeoff will also increase from the current 74,400 kilonewtons to more than 80,800 kN. A giant jump that will allow Spacex to display its new generation Starlink network, and then focus on the ultimate goal of getting to Mars.

Like every year, Apple has taken advantage of the month of September to officially present the new iPhone batch. In this article we will focus on the base model of the iPhone 17, although the evening has also been starred by the iPhone 17 Pro and the family’s first: the iPhone 17 Air. This year, the younger brother of the family has very interesting changes while maintaining a family design that users already know. Apple continues its staggered price strategy, being the iPhone 17 the most economical model of this new batch of devices. Under these lines we tell you all the details. iPhone 17, Technical Card iPhone 17 Screen Ltpo Oled 6.3 “Super Retina XDR, 120 Hz 2,622 x 1,206 px (458 ppp) Until x nits DOLBY VISION HDR Processor Apple A19 (3 ​​Nm) Storage 128/256/512 GB RAM ND Dimensions and weight AxBXC mm XG Software iOS 26 Apple Intelligence Rear cameras Main: 48 MP, 26 mm, F/1.6 Ultra wide angle: 12 mp, 13 mm, f/2.2 (12x teleobjective of 12 MP thanks to the Quad Pixel sensor) 2x optical zoom Front camera True Dept 12 MP, F /1.9 Battery ND connections USB-C, Wifi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC Others Face id Dynamic Island IP68 resistance Emergency calls Accident detection Second generation UWB Camera control button Price From x euros With more screen and welcoming 120 Hz One of the main novelties of the iPhone 17 is the increase in the size of its screen, which exceeds 6.1 inches of the iPhone 16 at 6.3 inches. This means that the base model now matches the dimensions of the iPhone 16 Prothus obtaining more visual space. However, perhaps the most relevant change comes with the inclusion of technology Promotion of 120Hz, which until now had been reserved exclusively for the Pro models. The panel, which has the LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED technology of the firm, now provides just like its older brothers A much more fluid displacement And more visual experience, something that will above all will be noted when navigating the iOS interface and the rest of the applications. It should also be noted that the protection of the panel is in charge of the new generation of Ceramic Shield, a glass that covers all family screens. Apple promises that this new generation of Ceramic Shield is three times more scratch resistant. More performance thanks to chip A19 As for processor, the iPhone 17 incorporates the new chip A19 Manufactured in process of 3 nanometers. This six -core processor is accompanied by a five -core Apple GPU that, although there is a step below the PRO Models, promise exceptional performance for all types of uses. The chip also includes a 16 -nuclei neural Engine responsible for offering greater performance in processes that require IA. Although the company has not mentioned it in the presentation, the memory configuration is maintained in 8GB of RAM, available in three storage options: 128GB, 256GB and 512GB. It is in the pro versions where we will find the 12 GB of RAM and storage of up to 1 TB. Continuity in the cameras Unlike its older brothers, the standard iPhone 17 maintains The dual camera system In vertical disposition typical of its predecessor, offering a camera system very similar to the experience that the iPhone 16 had already given us: this is: a main sensor of 48 megapixels, an ultra great angle of 12 megapixieles and a 12 megapixel selfie camera, being the device also trained for 4K video recording and Dolby Vision support. The curious thing about its main camera is its ‘Fusion’ system, a kind of off -road sensor in which we can even take macro photographs, also improving the performance against its predecessor. The Selfie Chamber also has a novelty: the possibility of obtaining photographs in the orientation that we choose, being able to get high resolution photos in a much more versatile way. Battery and autonomy From Apple they promise a battery with an autonomy superior to last year’s model. Incrately, the company ensures that the owners of this device will have 8 more hours of video playback than its predecessor. How could it be otherwise, it also maintains the same characteristics of the iPhone 16, that is, compatibility with fast charging and wireless load. Once we have the device in our hands, it will be interesting to study your autonomy and the active screen figures that we get in the tests. For now, it’s time to wait. Price and availability Apple will offer the iPhone 17 in a selection of colors that includes black, white, lime and red, maintaining both classic novel options. As for the price, the iPhone 17 intends to keep the same Apple strategy starting from the (price) for the 128GB version.

We will have all the expected guests: Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, the Droids, all kinds of imperial forces including Darth Vader and the Emperor, and several versions of Luke Skywalker (with the black suit of ‘The Return of the Jedi’, dress of Stormtrooper next to Han Solo …). Curiosity: some unexpected detail such as the inclusion of a Beach Tropperthe Stormtropers in a swimsuit that made their debut in the 2006 ‘Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy’ video game. Everything expected in the death star. How could it be otherwise, this death star includes stays taken from the original trilogy, from the garbage crusher to the throne room of ‘The return of the Jedi’, to recreate a final duel with all details.

Some protests. There are already some lucky disappointment to whom they are more satisfied. Among the complaints that have been in the community in recent weeks, especially, the quality of the figures, lower than expected: most are recycled from previous sets, something unusual in the most expensive sets. In addition, they are not even the best quality figures, as with C3PO, which has been represented before in more detailed figures and better valued by the community. There have also been protests because, unlike previous death stars, the set It is not a sphere, but a section of the structure. Question of taste, but It is one of the complaints They circulate online. Varied opinions.
