A sparrowhawk has been spotted in Mieres, a bird that has only been seen 14 other times in Spain.

The Spanish automotive industry associations, Anfac and Sernauto, have formally requested that major political parties commit to the continuity and expansion of the Plan España Auto 2030. This appeal comes ahead of the general elections scheduled for November 29, as the sector seeks to secure long-term policy stability for manufacturers and suppliers.

The initiative aims to ensure that strategic automotive policies remain a priority regardless of the electoral outcome. By calling for depth and consistency in the existing framework, the industry seeks to maintain a clear roadmap for the future of vehicle and component manufacturing within Spain.
