say goodbye to your right hand

Although Tesla already has her CEO with exclusive dedicationthe manufacturer still faces serious commercial problems After the company’s fall in the company in the US and, above all, for its disastrous figures in Europe. In the midst of this scenario, Elon Musk has been forced to make a drastic and painful decision: to fire one of its closest and most confidence collaborators. Tesla asked for blood and Afshar is the offering. According The published by ForbesElon Musk has fired OMEAD AFSHAR, Vice President of Manufacturing and Operations of Tesla in North America and Europe. This decision comes at a critical moment. The world sales of Tesla suffered a significant collapse during the first quarter of the year, as well as a serious reputational crisis that triggered Attacks against concessionaires of Tesla in the US and Europe. Afshar is one of Musk’s maximum confidence executives, so before starting his adventure Politics with Trumpthe Millionaire ascended him as Sales and Head of Operations. An extremely sensitive charge before the forecast of fall in sales that was going to cause The generational relief of your best selling car. Musk had put Afshar on the edge of the razor. When Musk needed something to be solved, he always called Apshar and he was in charge of solving him. He Wall Street Journal He described it as “the Musk problem solution.” Therefore, when the millionaire designated him for this position he could not imagine that, months later, he would have to say goodbye. He public rejection that generated the role of Musk at the head of Doge’s cuts, made sales fall much more than expected. Specifically, the brand has left 13% in total sales during the first quarter of the year. Sales are They sank 45% in Europewhile enrolling electric cars They grew up 15.3% year -on -year and its competition He sold more cars that never. OMEAD AFSHAR: Musk’s problem solving. OMEAD AFSHAR was one of Elon Musk’s maximum trusted men since his incorporation to Tesla in 2017. His role was key in the optimization of the chain of Model 3 assembly And, subsequently, he led the construction of Tesla gigafactoría in Austin, Texas. According to the Elon Musk biography Written by Walter Isaacson, Afshar was one of those responsible for the factory to be located in Austin and not elsewhere. In addition, he had a decisive role in the Robotaxis Design and in him Optimus developmentthe Tesla robot. Afshar also participated in the Musk landing on Twitterconsolidating as a fundamental piece in all the great movements of the company in recent years. An exodus of managers in Tesla. The case of Omead Afshar is not an isolated event within Tesla. In recent weeks, two other high positions of Musk’s maximum confidence have abandoned the company for different reasons. Milan Kovac, engineering director of the Optimus Humanoid Robot Program, He recently resigned claiming that he wanted to spend more time with his family, he said In his X profile. Musk He publicly thanked The time Kovac had dedicated to the company, but has not commented on AFShar’s departure. For its part, Jenna FerruDirector of Human Resources of Tesla for North America, also left Tesla and no longer appears in the company’s directory, As published Bloomberg. All these changes in Tesla’s directive dome reflect that the brand is in an intense process of Reorientation of your strategy. To publicly demonstrate these changes, Musk has had to sacrifice some very valuable pawns in their surroundings. In Xataka | We knew that the CEO of large companies were very well paid.

The European Parliament has taken a step to shield free hand luggage on flights. It is not the plan that supports the 27

by

The European Parliament wants hand luggage to be what was once: part of the ticket, not an extra. This week has taken a key step So that each passenger can climb on board with a bag and a small suitcase without paying one more penny. On paper sounds good. But the road is long, the text is not yet definitive and some airlines, which have been charging for almost everything for years, They already warned in their day: If they are forced to include it for free, they will compensate it on the other hand. What includes the proposal. The reform raised by Brussels does not remain alone in the luggage. But start there. The approved text In a meeting of the Transportation Commission It establishes that passengers should have the right to embark with a bag or backpack (up to 40 × 30 × 15 cm) and a small piece of hand luggage (up to 100 cm in total and 7 kg of weight), all without surcharge. The resolution also states that children under 12 have insured a seat adjacent to their companion without paying for the selection, and that people with reduced mobility have more guarantees. Among them, to be able to travel with an assistant without paying tickets when necessary, and being compensated if your help equipment is damaged or your assistance animal is injured. And prepare more changes. One of the most delicate points of the reform has to do with multimodal paths: those in which the trip combines train, bus and plane, for example. Today, if a connection is lost in that type of itineraries, the passenger can be unprotected. Transport Eurodiputados want to change that. The proposal seeks that if the whole journey has been hired with a single company or platform, the passenger is entitled to assistance (food, accommodation) and, if the seller did not indicate the type of ticket, to the full refund plus 75% compensation. All that, provided that the lost connection implies a delay of at least 60 minutes. The air sector, uncomfortable. The Association of Airlines (Wing) He has lamented That the European Parliament is “limiting the freedom” of passengers to choose the services they need. Criticize that the proposal generates confusion and moves away of the line agreed a few weeks ago by the Member States in the EU Council. What comes now. It should be noted that the reform is not yet closed. The text approved by the Transportation Commission – by 38 votes in favor, 2 against and 2 abstentions – must go through the Plenary of Parliament in July, and then begin the negotiation process with the Member States. That’s where many of the initial proposals usually soften. In parallel, airlines press so that the final text does not impose obligations that affect their tariff structure. The great unknown is whether the free of hand luggage will end up armored or if it will remain, once again, subject to interpretation. Until then, everything remains the same: each airline maintains its luggage policy. Images | Cameron Cox | Michał Parzuchowski In Xataka | Vigo airport has released a novel and digital control tower.

The European Union takes another step to make it legal to charge us for hand luggage

by

It is just one more step but it is very relevant if we take into account the battle that Government and Ryanair are fighting in Spain for this reason. Europe has taken another step for airlines to charge for hand luggage through a modification in the regulations to which travelers accept when they fly inside the European Union. And it is not the only relevant change. What has been approved? The European Union Council, formed in this case by the Ministers of Transportation of the Member Countries, has voted in favor of modifying the regulations with which the airlines have to comply within the European Union. The text is about the collection of the hand suitcase but also compensation in case of delay. According to the Information sent by the Council of Europeit is about defining better “with lighter and more direct rules” the rules to which passengers have to submit. And they emphasize that “they will bring more than 30 new rights to aerial passengers, applicable from the moment they buy the ticket, until they reach their destination, and in some cases even beyond. It is a historical milestone, since an agreement could not have been reached in the last 12 years.” Are all countries agree? No, the proposed text has been approved with the opposite votes of Spain Germany, Portugal and Slovenia. Austria and Estonia have refrained. In eldiario.es They point out that the meeting has extended much more than expected since there was no consensus on some points such as the times that must be overcome before compensating passengers. Click on the image to go to the original post Why does Spain complain? Spain has voted against the proposition because, According to Pablo BustinduyMinister of Consumption, “the Council has adopted a new regulation for aerial passengers that ends with the free of hand luggage that enters the cabin and reduces the right to claim for the delays of airlines.” The new text specifies that “additional rates applied by the transport of billed and not invoiced luggage” can be charged. That “not invoiced” is the key because it reinforces Ryanair’s thesis that there are no maximum required measures in which the size of the handbag is specified and, therefore, they will have a totally free way to maintain their current policy. From the government they point out that it is a mistake and that the measure has been promoted by “the airline lobby.” And Bustinduy emphasizes: “This new text confirms what we already knew: to charge for the hand luggage that enters the cabin or for the companion seat of a dependent person is illegal with the current legislation. That is why airlines have pressed both to legitimize this abusive practice with a new regulation” Not just luggage. In addition to hand luggage, the new text opens a new path for the right of passenger rights in case of delay. If the text is maintained until its final approval, the times that must pass before compensation will also be changed that, until now, was applied when the delay was greater than three hours. So, You want to approve new conditions: Trips of less than 3,500 km and trips within the EU: Compensation for delays of more than 4 hours (€ 300) Trips of more than 3,500 km: Compensation for delays of more than 6 hours (€ 500) Why is it relevant? The Government and Ryanair maintain an intense dispute in Spain. Ryanair only allows Free access to a lump of a maximum of 40x20x25 cm. That barely leaves space for a brief backpack and There are those who are doing business with it. For the Government, this way of acting is illegal because they ensure that it does not meet the minimum taxes by the European Union that talks about companies are obliged to allow the entry of “essential” luggage. This led the government to impose a fine that added 179 million euros to five airlines (Ryanair, Vueling, Easyjet, Norwegian and Volotea). Ryanair, the most punished, took a fine of more than 107 million euros. However, Justice has not shown preference Clara for any of the actors. In Spain, some courts have failed In favor of the user When it comes to claiming the money charged by the hand suitcase but others have proved the right To the Irish company. The Government-Ryanair battle. From the application of the fine, Ryanair and the government live an intense battle that has left us all kinds of scenarios: Remember that Ryanair is the company that greater volume of flights has in Spain And, therefore, its departure from some regional airports has seriously injured the activity that moved there, Like Valladolid’s. Is everything said? No, the text now has to pass the European Parliament Filter and it remains to be seen to what extent there is consensus. The change in the European Union Council has been approved by little (more than 15 countries that represent more than 65% of the population) and explain in eldiario.es that there have been differences when approved the increase in the necessary times before compensating passengers due to delays, this being the most thorny point.

The motorcycle fever of the 2,000 has brought to the absurd the price of the second hand. There are more expensive than 20 years ago

by

The price of second -hand cars It has been triggered for yearsand it is more than usual to find models that cost more today than new four or five years ago. It is a sector that is not alone. The second -hand motorcycle is more expensive than everand it is not necessary to point to especially exclusive editions. Some are selling at exorbitant prices, although with a certain trick. The lucky one. The Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade It is one of the icons of the sports motorcycle. Even more in its Repsol version, painted with the colors of the MotoGP team. It was an especially expensive motorcycle, that was sold for 11,799 dollarsabout 14,000 euros in Spain. Inflation has made its own and, 20 years later, this model is sold (the current CBR1000RR-R Fireblade) is sold for 25,500 euros, a price in the line of what the great Japanese manufacturers ask for for their supercar. The price. The revaluation of a unit in perfect condition of this Honda is shocking. One of them was sold in the London Motorcycle Show for 22,000 pounds, just over 26,000 euros to change. In Motorpasion Moto They echo a second unit, with an estimated price of between 10,000 and 15,000 pounds, waiting for a new owner. He never started. To achieve these figures that exceed the original price, some requirements must be met, some of them especially complex. These units are sold as an old concessionaire stock: they have never been started, conducted or enrolled. They are motorcycles with 20 years on their backs, but without use. It’s not just nostalgia. The fever for the 2,000 superbikes is real, and there is nothing more to see the revaluation of most models in Platforms such as Milanuncios. Motorcycles of 20 years ago with prices that touch the 10,000 euros if the unit is in excellent condition and with “few” kilometers. They are motorcycles specially oriented to circuit, they do not have electronics or the restrictions on emissions of current models, and are seen as authentic candies to enjoy driving in their purest state. Beyond the sports motorcycle. Finding second -hand units almost at the same price as new units is not something exclusive to the supercar motorcycle. According to Anesdor datathe average price of the general motorcycle has risen 30% in the last five years. And, to a higher displacement, greater increase in the price. Despite the slightest attraction in the occasion market, in Spain two occasion motorcycles are sold for each new motorcycle, with an annual growth trend that is around 5% year -on -year.

There was a war in Europe for giving the second -hand digital market and we already have a clear winner: Vinned

by

Percentile, the Spanish startup, of resale of fashion items, has been for two months In a bankruptcy processin search of a lifeguard. Wallapop continues to compete in that market, but without clear leadership in it. And Vinned, meanwhile, sweeps. The resale sector in Spain and in Europe is in a change of cycle. The panoramic. The second -hand clothing is a hypercompetitive market, and Vinted not only survives in it: it is dominating it. It has managed to grow where others are going back or searched for a place where they settle without finding it. To achieve this, Vinned has diversified its catalog and has also done something not so common: to earn money with its activity. The context. Percentile was a pioneer. It was founded in 2012, thirteen years old, and operated in four countries, with almost a million customers and more than a dozen millions of garments sold. However, and despite the heavyweights of the risk capital they invested in it (François Derbaix or Cabiedes & Partners between them), has not resisted the price war of the Fast Fashion. Not even the increase in the second -hand clothing market, increasingly popular and widespread, has been able to compensate for that pressure. And now look for a buyer to avoid disappearance. Between the lines. The Percentile model contributed a lot of comfort to the user, because he did everything for him: collection, classification and sale. But it was more comfortable than profitable. He only accepted half of the garments and offered rather low margins. Now its founders They speak to focus on “higher quality brands”, but maybe it’s too late. In figures. Meanwhile, Vinned in 2024 … It has tripled its benefit before taxes: 95.4 million euros. 813.4 million euros in revenue, 36% more than in 2023. He managed to reach 23 markets … … already the 2,200 employees. It is valued in 5,000 million euros. In detail. A part of his secret is in the invisible: Vinted Go and Vinted Payits own logistics and payments units. Also Vinned Ventures, his investment arm. Vinned’s ultimate goal is not just selling clothes. That is just a part. The idea is to build a complete ecosystem around the resale. Yes, but. Wallapop competes and has millions of users, true. But his generalist approach has not allowed him to emerge in the resale of clothing. It is too broad to compete in a concrete niche, as Vinted does. It has a very large catalog, but its brand is not associated with the style, and that weighs in an environment (sell used clothes) in which trust is key. In addition, Vind has many filters to locate garments (size of any part of the body, color, etc.) of which Wallapop lacks. The alarm signal. As a percentile slid, the sector grows, so the problem does not come from a lower demand. The threat is in the Low Cost from Zara, Shein and company, which have changed the rules. Sometimes it is cheaper to buy new than second hand. Only platforms with a lot of scale, focus and efficiency can survive and be profitable. Percentile is staying the way to see if a new owner can correct his course, and Wallapop resists, but Follow in losses. Who wins is Vind. And now what. Vinned wants more: he has long opened his doors beyond clothes, and now he is going something beyond electronics or luxury. Although it runs the risk of opening so much that Wallapop’s problems to lead in fashion move to it. Predictably, “circular fashion” will continue to grow and European regulations will add pressure to the conventional textile industry. In Xataka | I am a seller with five stars in Wallapop.

Selling a second -hand electric car is a very bad idea. Unless your car is an xiaomi su7

by

The second -hand electric car It is worth little money. Very little money really and much less than that of a combustion car. Something that makes sense if we take into account how technology progresses and the speed with which electric cars are outdated. This maelstrom in which the market lives has caused some rental companies to have lost a lot of money with the electric car. The case of Hertz and Tesla It is representative of how a brand can be a shelter value For a while and collapse in the second -hand market in a very short time if she herself decides to lower prices or competitors begin to launch important innovations. Xiaomi is living that moment Tesla. And, therefore, it is the company with the highest residual value in its vehicles. A value so high that it pales that of the rest of the manufacturers, including Europeans, and that has its reason for being in high demand and novelty. Xiaomi is living its moment Tesla The electric car market, although already giant in China, is still a relatively new market. That causes some distortions such as the one that Xiaomi is living or the one that Tesla herself has lived for years. To give some examples of the impact that some brands can have. Elon Musk’s company has gone so ahead of the competition that in Europe has come to have market quotas greater than 10% A few months ago, an extremely high figure considering that it competes with four cars and only two of them are available to the general public. That fever for getting a Tesla has left us curious photographs. So much that before a broken supplies chain, there would be who will pay a surcharity in front of a new car for getting a second -hand tesla in the semi -new market. Or that the tesla cybertruck was for months the car More than 100,000 euros best selling of the United States. But it has also shown us why these types of situations have occurred. The value of Tesla in the second -hand market fell when the supplies chain was balanced and the company itself began to Apply aggressive discounts to maintain its market share in the face of competitions. Also when The cybertruck bubble went unblog And the demand seemed satiated. They are two phenomena that explain why the Xiaomi Su7 is the Chinese electric car that loses the lower a year. In fact, according to the Chinese Chinese Automobile Association, retains 88.7% of its value after a year. It is a spectacular figure to which, among Western vehicles, only Tesla Model X (77.8%) and Model 3 (75.3%) can shade in China. With 71.2% value retention, the Tesla Model and sneaks among the 10 electric cars that retain the most value in China. Form, next to their brothers, the only Western electric cars that enter into this section. Behind Xiaomi, Li Auto occupies the second and third position with the M9 and the Mega. It is surprising that Not a single byd car between the list Of the electric cars that retain the most value a year but it makes sense if we serve the brands we find in the list. Xiaomi, Li Auto, Tesla and Smart (which sneaks as seventh) are brands considered premium in in the Asian country. But there is another component, any of those companies have a smaller production or offer than that of the Chinese giant byd. Who looks for a “affordable” tesla has two options and four in the total of its range. Li auto only has five options. Smart is growing its offer. Xiaomi has only one vehicle. To keep in mind what price difference exists with Western companies, Volkswagen, Ford and Kia lose half of their value in a single year. None of them retains more than 53% of the same past for a year. The European company that best yields Porsche (69%), followed by Mercedes (59%). Xiaomi fever has been so high that demand has surpassed supply. He has done it with the entire range, from its basic street versions to the most powerful and radical that added a volume of reserves in 10 minutes according to its entire annual production. That excessive demand prevents the car from falling on price in the second -hand market and that, in specific cases, shoots at the price. To this we must add that the Chinese market is turning with local companies. Li Auto and Xiaomi are seen as companies that offer the latest technology and that are A step ahead of the western ones to which they only see as combustion cars brands that Electrified versions put on the market. That need to feel something new or something different and more advanced in the electric car has led the country to create the label of “Smart Electric Car” Because users feel the need to differentiate between electric cars “for day to day” or that offer a connected experience but similar to the one we experience in the West and those that offer more advanced options such as a better quality semi -autonomous conduction. That unstoppable advance of the industry (more advanced cars in autonomous driving, recharges to ever views, battery changes in stations …) Slop the price of electricity in the second -hand market because they cause premature obsolescence and put obstacles to companies that cannot play at that rate. In that market, the best news is to be a young company, with a very reduced offer that has managed to create a very high expectation for a model.

If the question is “I can wear a free hand suitcase with Ryanair”, the response of justice is: it depends

by

Win and lose. And along the way a fine continues to float a fine and the consequences derived from it. The sanction to Ryanair receives an extra cost in the hand suitcase continues to leave us sentences and one thing is clear: neither the justice itself agrees. A fine. It all starts last November. One is confirmed Historical fine to four operators. Of these, Ryanair is the most affected. The sanction is 107.78 million euros and is imposed to breach the rights of passengers to carry a hand suitcase without extra cost. At least that is what the government that sanctions the company through consumption. Ryanair, on the contrary, has another opinion. Yes, it accepts that there is a regulation that allows free hand luggage to be carried out but it shields that there are no established measures for it. As there is no “standard” suitcase, they charge to carry the luggage that can be transferred to the winery. What are Ryanair’s conditions? First of all, what we have to know is that Ryanair does let a lump to the cabin. But that is, exclusively a lump that does not exceed the measures of 40 x 20 x 25 cm. That size does not comply with those considered as cabin bags that extend up to 55 x 40 x 20 cm and 10 kg of weight. In that case, in carrying with us a trolley to the cabin of the plane, we will have to pay the fee Regular or priority that opens the door to that usual suitcase in the planes and a second lump such as a backpack or a bag. This game with the diffuse areas of the law, that of not being defined in any regulations what are the exact measures of a suitcase, is the one that the Irish company grabs to defend its position before the demands of the users. Ryanair wins. At least in Seville. There, the company has made the resource of a client who was forced to pay for the cabin suitcase does not prosper. Section 2 of the Mercantile Court of Seville has dismissed the demand filed by the traveler, they explain since The world. The client understood that they were charging 12 euros on a round trip (six per trip) illegally. However, the Sevillian court buys the defense of Ryanair: it is not true that it is prevented from flying with a free suitcase, what Ryanair prevents is accessing with a suitcase superior to the dimensions of 40 x 20 x 25 cm. And they point out that the client was allowed “to carry a lump of reasonable dimensions.” Ryanair loses. At least in Salamanca. There, the company has to return 147 euros to a passenger receivable the cabin suitcase in five different routes between 2019 and 2024, they point out in eldiario.es. The affected person is a Facua partner, an association through which they have filed their demand. In this case, the passenger denounced that the company had forced him to choose the rate Priority to be able to access the cabin of the plane with your hand luggage in which it only wore basic clothes and equipment. The judge has based her decision that “hand luggage is an indispensable element of passenger transport (…) cannot be subject to price supplement,” they collect in The world. Beyond specific cases. What we have, in addition to two contradictory sentences, is that the battle between Ryanair and the Government continues. On the one hand, from the Executive they defend the consumption decision and, on the other, Ryanair continues to show that the sentences in which they obtain favorable results They are certification that the company “fully complies with the legislation of the European Union.” The problem for passengers is that the pulse between Ryanair and Government has overflowed and is affecting peripheral airports, where the company had a substantial role in air traffic and where is marching as a pressure measure To the Executive. In fact, the company has insisted that if Aena’s rates do not fall in the future (the excuse to reduce the presence in these places) will continue to derive its operations To other places. Operations like its new line to Morocco that despite the low volume of occupation keeps open thanks to a government doping. Doping that, by the way, We have also applied in Spain.

LaLiga has in her hand to prevent people from stopping seeing illegal IPTV. You just have to imitate Netflix

by

The nightmare of IPS blocks by LaLiga continues. Not only that: it seems to increase. Soccer is becoming a problem For Internet users in our country, and are (we are) paying fair for sinners. Why is this happening? This is what we try to find out analyzing one of the potential root problems – the cost of seeing football – and stating those prices with what has happened on other streaming platforms. Why what works for Netflix or Spotify does not do so for football? Let’s see it. How much does football cost in Spain and Europe Today in Spain football fans depend on telephone operators to enjoy these broadcasts. If the objective is to be able to access all the First Division Soccer matches of LaLiga and those of competitions such as the Champions League, The options are two: Movistar+ and Orange. They told it a few months ago Our mobile Xataka companionswhich explained what were the disputes available plans, in which fiber, mobile and television are always combined in different versions. In those two cases Prices start from 115 euros per month of Movistar or the 80.95 euros per month of Orange (although without mobile data). O2 and Jazztel also offer some games, but much more limited: each day we have access to a LaLiga EA Sports (First Division) match, a Champions League match (if celebrated day) and three games of LaLiga Hypermotion (Second Division). That exclusivity of Movistar and Orange, however, They could change: Yoigo and Masmoble plan a television service with Orange TV infrastructure and in which 90 channels and all football will be included. At the moment there are no prices or defined availability date for this project. And in Europe? Other European countries have different costs, but it is important here to emphasize that the prices we will talk about are access to football without further ad I would go apart. Thus, we have: France: Dazn has a package to see all the link 1 for 35 euros per month (25 euros/month if you are under 26 years). Canal+ has a plan that also includes European competitions and costs 29.99 euros per month. Germany: In Dazn Unlimited All Bundesliga and Champions League matches for 34.99 euros per month are available. There are some optional platforms such as Sky with similar prices. Italy: DAZN offers all the A series A for 30 euros per month, while they can see the Champions League, it must be combined with Sky Italy, which has a cost of 25 euros per month. The total cost is therefore 55 euros per month. England: Sky Sports has all the rights to convey the matches, and the package costs about 22 pounds per month (26 euros/month). BT Sport broadcasts the Champions League, and the cost in that case is 25 euros per month, so the combined cost is about 51 euros per month. What is also true is that these amounts and these plans vary constantly and both operators and platforms offer constant promotions in order to capture more users. When Netflix taught us the way There was a time when music downloads or films on P2P networks were especially popular. That was cumbersome and illegal, but there were not many more options either. Or none. This was what was seen in Netflix in 2015, when he arrived in Spain. Everything would change with the arrival of Netflix, Spotify and its competitors, who showed that we could have streaming services of fantastic content, accessible, with a great catalog and with a more than reasonable price. Suddenly I was no longer compensated to be looking for other places: The legal alternative was really remarkable. The subscription model settled and became the norm, and thanks to a good balance, content companies realized something striking: the best way to fight illegal content was to offer a good service at an acceptable price. This principle has been corrupted in recent years: Servcios like Netflix have Uploaded prices Notably, they have stopped allowing Share accounts And they have also put ads, Like all its competitors. Users can protest (we protest), but time has proved those responsible for these services, who have not stopped growing and They are in record figures. How have things come out to Netflix? We can see it in two quite representative graphics of the situation. Since 2012, when the service began to be available in the US (arrived in Spain Something later), Netflix was raising prices more and more frequent. With each climb protests, yes, but … Sooner or later most return. Netflix price evolution in the US. These changes have been analogous in the rest of the world, and Spain is no exception. Source: The Verge. In fact, growth in users is apparently unstoppable in Netflix. The plan with advertisements, which we can criticize so much, It has been a resounding success And today more than half of the new subscribers arrive at the service thanks to this plan. Evolution of Netflix subscribers globally from 2011 to 2024. Source: Business of Apps. At present, the platform has More than 300 million subscriberswhen a decade ago The figure was five times lower (62.71, According to Business of Apps). There have been hardly two semester throughout its history in which there had The shared accounts or the plan with ads. That seems to make it clear that despite everything to millions of users They are still compensated by paying those subscriptions And not to go to illegal content distribution services, so if it works for them, what is happening with football in Spain? The Netflix of Sports Today the standard plan with Netflix ads costs 7 euros per month. Not bad, especially considering what football costs. Even considering the cost of the most affordable plans to see all football in Spain (with many asterisks, about 29 euros in Orange), the price both here and in other countries in Europe seems elevated. Seeing football in Spain costs about 30 euros a month with Orange … Read more

“Second -hand mobiles”

by

The week starts with an oxygen ball for consumer technology manufacturers. Trump has approved A 90 -day extension for electronic devicesreleasing Apple and other great manufacturers of the 125% tariff imposed on China. The United States has made it clear that it is a temporary measure, so this changing scenario will follow its frantic rhythm in the coming weeks. This means that, finished the pause and if it does not end up reaching agreements, the prices of consumer electronics as we know it are destined to change. If companies cannot be profitable in a key market like the United States, the margins are wobble. In the hands of exceptions. There was a very clear name when applying possible tariff exemptions: Apple. The Trump administration movement would deeply hurt a company whose supply chain, despite diversification efforts, It was located mainly in China. An iphone of 2,300 dollarsa production chain staggering and uncertainty about the product strategy and a second worldwide manufacturer also damaged: Samsung and 46% tariff to Vietnam. A scenario that made it inevitable that a scenario of strong price increases be drawn. No one breathes calmly. Trump’s measures are temporary, and the 10% global tariff could change in just a few hours or days. Be that as it may, with the current cards on the table, the 90 -day exemption does not change the final photo: companies will have to diversify and move token as quickly as possible to demociate their production from China as soon as possible. There is a clear winner in this storm of possible (and more than probable) price increases in Spain: The second hand. A market that has been taking special strength in our country for years, and in which an even more bunder of consumer electronics would mean a boom. Spain and the second hand.

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.
