sales

The automobile industry in China has broken a new record, and sales in Europe have not been the only ones that have contributed

by

The Chinese automobile industry has reached an export value of 798.39 billion yuan (about 96.9 billion euros) in the first ten months of 2025, according to data of the country’s General Customs Administration. It is about an increase of 14.3% compared to the same period of the previous year, and this is one more example of China being one of the main vehicle exporting powers in the world. And it is that besides Europethere are already other markets of great interest for the country. A sector that drives foreign trade. While China’s total merchandise exports grew by 6.2% In this period, the automotive sector almost tripled that rate of expansion. Mechanical and electrical products accounted for more than 60% of the country’s exports, with automobiles and semiconductors as the main drivers of this growth. In October alone, vehicle exports rose 34% year-on-year. The role of electric and hybrid. Behind these figures are brands such as BYD, SAIC and Chery, whose electrified models have conquered new markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. Although the Customs Administration has not broken down the types of vehicles exported, sector data suggests that electric cars and plug-in hybrids are largely responsible for this boost. China is moving its production towards higher value-added segments, and the automobile is a key piece of that strategy. Who buys Chinese cars. ASEAN (Southeast Asia) remains China’s largest trading partner, with a total trade volume of 6.18 trillion yuan (up 9.1%), according to the General Administration of Customs. The European Union followswith 4.88 trillion yuan and a growth of 4.9%. The figures once again highlight how emerging regions and traditional European markets continue to absorb a good part of Chinese automobile production, although with different dynamics. The weight of private companies. Private Chinese companies have also played a determining role in this growth. According to the official dataaccounted for 21.28 trillion yuan in foreign trade (imports and exports combined) during the first ten months of the year, an increase of 7.2% year-on-year. And in addition to the companies that have state protection, there are also private companies that are experiencing great growth thanks to their international expansion. Warning signs on the horizon. Despite the good time, October has marked a turning pointas China’s total exports fell 0.8% year-on-year, the first setback in several months. Some analysts attribute this decline to an already very high comparison base, since 2024 was a record year. Also to fewer working days due to holidays and, above all, to weaker demand from the West. In fact, trade with the United States fell 15.9% in the first ten months of the year, according to the same source. What’s coming. Automobile exports are expected to close 2025 above 2024 levelsalthough probably at a more moderate pace. Demand from abroad is beginning to cool and trade restrictions in some markets, such as Europe, are tightening for China. Even so, the country’s automobile sector continues to demonstrate a capacity for growth greater than the rest of its manufacturing industry. It remains to be seen how long he can keep up the pace.

We knew Tesla’s sales were crashing in 2025. We weren’t aware to what extent

by

Dramatic figures. And it is not an exaggeration. It is the confirmation that something is not going well with Tesla’s sales in Europe. We already know that the first month of each quarter is usually especially bad for the company. October, the tenth of the year, has been particularly disastrous. A year to forget. If we add up Tesla’s sales in Europe so far this year, the reported figures are bad. In the first nine months of the year (now we will tell why we took this figure), Elon Musk’s company sold 173,694. A far cry from last year’s 242,976 units at the end of the third quarter. Specifically, 28.5% less. The figures are especially worrying for Tesla because the electric car market share grew in the same period from 13.1% to 16.1%. Therefore, its total market share has decreased from 2.5% in September 2024 to 1.7%. The market share hit among electric cars should, therefore, be much greater. Dramatic October. But October has been a dramatic month for Tesla. In the absence of having the data for the sum of all the European markets that ACEA, the employers’ association, will not present until the last week of November, we do know the results in the main European markets. Pay attention to the records it shows Electrek: Germany: 750 units and -53.5% compared to last year. Italy: 256 units and -47.1% compared to last year Netherlands: 645 units and -47.9% compared to last year Norway: 671 units and -50.2% compared to last year Portugal: 144 units and -58.7% compared to last year Austria: 97 units and -64.5% compared to last year Finland: 47 units and -67.6% compared to last year Sweden: 133 units and -88.7% compared to last year Denmark: 102 units and -86% compared to last year Spain? In Spain, Tesla has saved the furniture… and it has fallen by more than 30%. We say this because the company, between January and October 2025, has sold 7.58% more than last year. It is a clearly insufficient figure, taking into account that electric cars in Spain have increased by 86%, according to data from ANFAC. All in all, Tesla continues to lead the top two positions among the best-selling electric cars in our country. Of course, what was once an overwhelming leadership is now a much tighter battle. As of October, Tesla has sold 7,722 units of the Model 3 and, what is much more worrying for the company, 4,924 units of the Model Y. This is striking because the Kia EV3 It is already fighting head-to-head with the Tesla Model Y for being the second best-selling electric car of the year in Spain. He BYD Dolphin Surfwhich arrived in May 2025, is already in 2,796 units and is the fifth best-selling electric car in Spain. Between them, the Renault 5 but it has been adding units all year. BYD’s small electric car has sold 846 units this past month. That’s 791 more units than the Tesla Model 3 has registered. The first month. And Tesla has only added 55 units of the Model 3 in our country in October 2025. This is explained because the first months of each quarter (January-April-July-October) tend to be especially bad. The bulk of units of cars arriving from China, such as the Tesla Model 3, arrive and are accumulated to be sold in the last month of each quarter. The problematic thing for Tesla is that the registration figures are dismal even in that famous first month of the quarter. In Spain, the Tesla Model Y that dominated with an iron fist was the seventh best-selling car in October. And in just BYD sold more units of the Dolphin Surf in Spain than all the Teslas sold in Germany, a market much larger and with greater penetration of the electric car. The last quarter. It remains to be seen if Tesla manages to recover some ground in the last quarter, if it sinks a little more or, at least, disguises the results. Because it seems impossible that it will be able to compensate for a drop that at the end of the first three quarters exceeds 30%. It must be taken into account that rivals are tightening and eating up market share. Not only do traditional rivals have more supply and more competitive prices than years ago, BYD has expanded its presence in numerous markets and, according to SCMPBetween January and September 2025, the Chinese company accumulated almost 25,000 units throughout Europe. It is five times more than those registered in the same period of the previous year. It is very likely that it will not be enough to surpass Tesla this year, but it is likely that it will be close.

MercurySteam was the ambassador of Spanish video games. Until a sales failure turned the offices into hell

by

For years, they were a key reference in the history of video games in Spain. MercurySteam achieved something unusual: programming high-budget games from such beloved classic franchises as ‘Castlevania’ and Metroid from its country of origin. Its international expansion ambitions shone from the studio’s first steps, but have been overshadowed in recent years by complaints from former studio employees who denounce a suffocating work environment and a policy of crunches to meet deadlines. We review the history of MercurySteam from its glorious first steps to the latest revelations about its work dynamics, and that says our colleague Blissy in 3DJuegos. Twenty-something years of ambition. MercurySteam was born in 2002 in San Sebastián de los Reyes, formed by several former members of Rebel Act Studios, creators of an absolutely foundational game in the history of Spanish soft music: ‘Blade: The Edge of Darkness‘, precursor of the soulslike very advanced technology for its time. Determined to demonstrate that our country could compete in the international video game league, they started with a couple of modest but notable titles: ‘American McGee presents: Scrapland’ and ‘Clive Barker’s Jericho’. The Castlevania phenomenon. The real turning point for MercurySteam came with ‘Castlevania: Lords of Shadow’ in 2010, a 3D reformulation of the classic Konami franchise that was born as a stand-alone game and was later adapted to fit into the legendary vampire slayer saga. It was produced with the help of Hideo Kojima and for months its affiliation to the saga was hidden so as not to damage sales of other installments in development. After considerable commercial and sales success, the studio completed the trilogy with ‘Mirror of Fate’ (2013) and ‘Lords of Shadow 2’ (2014), establishing itself as a triple-A developer. A parenthesis. After Castlevania, the studio went through a transition phase. In 2017 they released the ambitious ‘Raiders of the Broken Planet’ (later renamed ‘Spacelords’), a shooter cooperative free-to-play with which they entered the model games as a service. The result was a more discreet success than their previous works, and MercurySteam had to consider a new twist in their plans. This would arrive with a twist similar to that of ‘Castlevania’: revitalize a classic franchise. In 2015 it was learned that MercurySteam had been working on a ‘Metroid’ prototype for Wii U and 3DS. It was not a job in vain: it ended up crystallizing in ‘Metroid: Samus Returns’ (2017) for 3DS, a very well-received remake of the classic ‘Metroid II’. This collaboration with Nintendo progressed into a completely original game, the brilliant ‘Metroid Dread‘ (2021), one of the best games in the Switch catalog, and which marked the long-awaited return of the saga to the 2D perspective after almost two decades. Since then, there have been changes in the studio: the Nordisk Games group acquired 40% of the studiowhich allowed the team to continue growing and tackle new projects. And they have even released a new video game this year, ‘Blades of Fire‘, a third-person RPG that was received with indifference by critics and did not meet sales expectations. It was this puncture that started, since January 2025, a series of measures that have turned MercurySteam, according to former employees interviewed by 3DJuegos, into an example of bad professional practices. In fact, the crisis started somewhat earlier: Already in 2020 MercurySteam had problems. Culture contrary to teleworking, offices with conditioning problems (for example, with very little lighting), poor internal communication, chaotic production and uncredited developers. Everything got radically worse in January 2025, when the company implemented the DIJ (Irregular Distribution of the Day) in some departments, allowing one hour of extra work per day (9 hours, maximum 45 per week), justified by “production needs.” In May, the month of the game’s release, several departments saw their working hours increased to 10 hours a day in total, a change that was managed in a highly criticized manner by employees. Among other problems, communication was always verbal, never in writing; Human Resources presented these hours as mandatory; there was constant appeal to the emotional and the “team spirit”; Teleworking and vacations were banned; and names were taken of those who rejected the measures. On May 8, two workers are fired just before the end of their trial period, one for refusing to work overtime (due to his partner’s risky pregnancy) and another for asking for written explanations. It would only be the beginning: after the failure of ‘Blades of Fire’, fires 18 workers in three days. One of them, a worker on mental health leave who suffered harassment from her boss while on leave, is fired when she returns. Although he thought about suing, he ended up withdrawing the lawsuit out of fear after threats from the company. In September, MercurySteam begins a phase of control and censorship of its employees, where all non-work communication channels are eliminated, “random audits” are announced, rest areas are eliminated, common spaces are reduced, and clocking turnstiles are installed in the kitchen. An entire policy of terror that continues until September 29, when makes the complaint public describing all these facts. Apart from a suspicious maneuver (an anonymous statement, supposedly from workers, but none of those interviewed by 3DJuegos know where it comes from), MercurySteam has implemented the 9 hours of the DIJ intermittently and tries to wash its image with job offers that They paint a much more positive atmosphere. But the worst thing is that there is a “sad and overwhelming” atmosphere in the company because, as one of the witnesses says, “the best thing Mercury had was the atmosphere… they are destroying the only good thing about the company.” A sad parenthesis for a company that was a leader in the sector and is going through a major image crisis due to something as essential as not knowing how to manage a crisis.

Cybertruck sales are so bad that Musk has started buying them himself

by

Six years ago, Tesla had the entire industry in awe. They had just announced the Cybertruckwith that futuristic design that left no one indifferent and Elon Musk boasted of his success: They had reserved 200,000 units in just three days. Things have changed a lot since then. Throttle problems, tires that don’t hold up and even pieces that fall off in motion. Sales are disappointing, so much so that Musk is starting to buy his trucks himself. What is happening. That Tesla is having difficulty selling its truck It’s no secret. In 2023, Musk said they would be able to sell a quarter of a million Cybertrucks a yearbut the reality is that in 2024 they sold 50,000 units and this year things look worse. According to ElectrekMusk has come up with a way to mitigate these numbers: have his other companies buy Cybertrucks. From one pocket to another. In addition to Tesla, Elon Musk also owns SpaceX and xAI, two of the companies that have begun acquiring Cybertrucks. We don’t know exactly why, but according to Elektrek, “hundreds” of Tesla Cybertrucks have been seen being delivered to the xAI offices this weekend. On the other hand, Many more Cybertrucks are being seen at SpaceX. Wes Morrill, chief engineer of Tesla Cybertruck, confirmed in Xthat SpaceX’s fleet of vehicles was being replaced by Cybertrucks, although it did not say how many they had purchased. Disappointing sales. Although Tesla sales are starting to pick upit’s no thanks to his truck. In March of this year they had to reduce production line because they had only sold 6,500 units and they moved workers to the manufacturing of the Tesla Model Y. In the third quarter of the year they have only sold 5,385 units, which represents a drop of 63% compared to the same period last year. It is estimated that this year they will sell 20,000 units. These are figures very far from Musk’s dream that he intended to sell between 250,000 and 500,000 Cybertrucks a year. Overstock. Is a serious problem for a car manufacturer because it blocks resources from the production line and storage. Tesla Cybertrucks pile up and the company needs to release them selling them cheaper than planned. Rumors suggest that Tesla has even considered selling it in Chinaa market where They were not planning to enterbut due to its size it could be the solution to the poor sales figures. The problem is that they would have to make changes to its design because it is dangerous for pedestrians, the same reason why not sold in Europe.

Its sales continue to fall in Europe in the face of the advance of the Asian electric car

by

What Tesla It is not going through its best moment In Europe it is no secret. Elon Musk’s company still resents of the fleeting, although media, controversial and Extremely changing support From his CEO to the president of the United States, Donald Trump, and the unstoppable advance of the Chinese electric car. The latest data reflects: sales in the main markets of the old continent remain in free fall. Although not everything is bad news. The data. The most important European markets for Tesla (and for the car market in general) are the United Kingdom, France and Germany. In these countries, the fall in Tesla’s registration, a strong indicator of sales, has been pronounced. Why does an electric car have less autonomy than the announcing Image | Charlie Deets According to information shared by Reuters and Bloombergonly in July the enrollments fell 60% in the United Kingdom, 55% in Germany and 27% in France. The rest of the countries They do not fall short: 86% in Sweden, 52% in Denmark, 62% in Holland, 58% in Belgium, 5% in Italy and 49% in Portugal. On the whole. If we look at the full photo, the figure is even more striking: Tesla sales have fallen 45% In the ten European markets that, together, accumulated 80% of Tesla sales in Europe during the first half of the year. In other words, Tesla’s sales continue to go downhill in the most important European countries. So far this year, the sales of Elon Musk’s firm have fallen a third in the old continent. And there are no countries in which it grows? Yes, Spain and Norway, to be exact. In Spain, Tesla car registrations increased by 27% (702 cars) in July, which represents a 1.1% growth so far this year. It is a percentage that does not accompany the growth of the electric car market in our country: 89.6%. In Norway, a country in which 97.2% Of the cars sold in July they were electric, increased 83% or what is the same, 838 cars. Image | Xataka Byd advances Tesla on the right. As it could not be otherwise, Asian manufacturers have taken advantage of the situation to continue eating the toast to Tesla. According to the data of the Jato consultancy of those echoing from The countryonly in the month of June Byd sold 15,565 cars in Europe of which 9,153 were electric (132% more). The semiannual figure is much more interesting: 41,270 electric cars, 143% more. The panorama has changed a lot. Best selling cars. The good news for Tesla is that, despite the fall in sales, the best -selling electric car continues to sign during the first semester of the year: the Tesla Model and. He Volkswagen ID.4 He is closely followed with a dangerous and threatening second place. The photo, however, is very different if we look at our country. Best -selling electric cars in July | Image: ANFAC The Spanish case. If we take a look at the most recent data from the ANFACwe will see that the best -selling electric cars in July have been the TOYOTA BZ4X (604 units), the Byd Dolphin Surf (531 units) and the KIA EV3 (493 units). It is not until the fourth position that we find a Tesla, Model 3, with 456 units sold. The Tesla Model and, meanwhile, falls to the tenth position. Plug -in hybrids best selling in July | Image: ANFAC In the accumulated January-Julio, Tesla goes quite well stopped. The Tesla Model 3 is the best selling electric with 4,545 units. They are followed by Model and (3,282 units) and KIA EV3 (3,206 units). In plug -in hybrids, the undisputed leader is the Byd Seal U.whose sale in July added 738 units (1,616% more).

Benalmádena wants to shoot sales in their stores. So he has declared war on colored awnings

by

Benalmádena has tired of colored potpourri on the terraces of the local restaurants and shops, so he has decided to cut for the healthy: an area, a tone. In the middle of summer and with restaurants, deploying umbrellas and awnings to protect its clients from the Mediterranean sun, the City Council It has moved token To give commercial neighborhoods a more “homogeneous” aspect. The objective: more attractive, more purchases. Goodbye, colored tide. Benalmádena, one of the most popular tourist destinations on the Costa del Sol, has decided to put order in a small detail that marks its visual personality: the awnings. Recently the City Council celebrated A special commission Centered on terraces, watchmen, facades and shops in which it approved a series of measures to “homogenize” the image of some neighborhoods. To be more precise, he has focused the focus on the area of Benalmádena Pueblo. Gray I love you gray. The most interesting measure focuses on the awnings and separating screens from its central almond. Benalmádena Pueblo will say goodbye to the potpourri of shades for the sake of a much more “attractive” image. “The awnings will be gray with white aluminum profiles, not allowing any commercial brand, only the name of the black establishment.” Are there more news? Yes. For the lateral separations of the terraces, the use of screens will be allowed, but as long as they fit certain patterns: They must be forged at the bottom and glass in the upper. The separators can also wear the name of the establishment as long as they do it in vinyl or with screen printing. The City Council also wants those stores that occupy public space with fruit, vegetables or vegetable positions do so with structures that “harmonize” with the facade. “Enjoy and Buy”. At this point the question is obvious: for what? What is the purpose of change? Raúl CamposCouncilor in the area of Commerce and Consumption, explains it clearly: the objective is to “improve aesthetics and order the area”, a change with which the session wants to go beyond the strictly visual and favor the local economy. “We are working to create an attractive and orderly commercial environment that invites you to enjoy the municipality and buy.” And from now on? The City Council wants to go beyond Benalmádena Pueblo and extend the initiative to other nuclei. The newspaper South keep it up That the change will arrive in Arroyo de la Honey and Benalmádena Costa, although the aesthetic details that will be applied in each area must still be agreed. The idea, the City Council insists, is to “respect the idiosyncrasy and personality of each urban nucleus” also adjusting to “the precepts of urban discipline” of the general plan. The Consistory emphasizes that decisions are made “with the consensus” of the Association of Merchants and Entrepreneurs (Aceb) and the open shopping center. The municipality already has a ordinance that regulates the terraces of the watchmen and the facades of the establishments and marks some guidelines on elements such as umbrellas or awnings. For example, it establishes that they must “harmonize” with the facade and its color has to authorize the community of owners. Beyond Benalmádena. Benalmádena is not the only town that has proposed to homogenize the exterior furniture of its terraces and shops. Throughout the last years similar initiatives have emerged (not always with equal success) in Salou, Malaga, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Algeciras, Mieres, Estepona either Marínto name just a handful of examples. The objective: that the most visible areas have some harmony and end colored pastiches. Images | Benalmádena City Council 1 and 2 In Xataka | Aragon’s ski stations are sentenced to death.

57,374. Those were the electric cars sold in Spain 2024. The numbers were not especially good. The country was expected to take a step forward and begin to cut land to the European average. However, we barely stay in a market share of 5.6%, by the 13.6% European. Last year, our country grew more than 11%while in Europe the electric car contracted 5.9%, dragged by falls in the sales of Germany (first European market by volume) of 27.4%.

Austria, where a fifth of the cars sold in our country is sold, also exceeded 44,000 units. However, 2025 is being very different. Spain is still far from the European average.
