The SEAT Ibiza, which premiered at the 1984 Paris motor show, is still considered the best-looking SEAT Ibiza of all time. The current generation of the Ibiza was expected to be replaced by the sixth generation, but the CEO of SEAT and Cupra announced that the current model would receive a second facelift in 2025, suggesting that the successor is still a few years away. Despite its age, the Ibiza continues to sell well, with SEAT almost reaching 300,000 sales in 2023. The Ibiza offers good value for buyers who are not yet ready to switch to electric vehicles, as it has great fuel economy and a classic interior design. The Ibiza competes well against its rivals in terms of driving dynamics, although the platform and powertrains show their age. SEAT's sales have been strong, with a 32% gain in the first seven months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. In addition to the Ibiza and the closely linked Arona, SEAT plans to update the Ateca and continue producing the León.

The ongoing Red Sea crisis, caused by Houthi attacks on shipping vessels, is leading to disruptions in the supply chain and longer transit times for companies such as Maersk, Hapag-Lloyd, and COSCO. Ships are being forced to circumnavigate the Cape of Good Hope and the African continent, resulting in additional costs and delays. The crisis has also impacted the oil and gas industry, with Shell, BP, and Equinor halting shipments. While there are concerns about inflation and interest rate pressures, some experts believe that the effects will be temporary and that companies will absorb the increased costs. The automotive industry has also been affected, with Tesla and Volvo pausing production due to supply chain delays. The Red Sea crisis highlights the vulnerability of global shipping routes and the potential for geopolitical tensions to impact inflation and interest rates. [Extracted from the article]

The article discusses the need for automakers to improve their emissions reporting in order to meet environmental regulations and avoid penalties. The move towards carbon neutrality in the automotive industry has begun, but weak reporting and below-standard targets are hindering progress. There is little standardization in emissions disclosure across the sector, with companies calculating emissions differently and excluding certain categories as they see fit. The article emphasizes the importance of prioritizing Scope 3 emissions reduction targets and reporting, as these account for the majority of emissions in the auto sector. It also suggests the use of metrics like emissions intensity to compare companies' decarbonization efforts. The article concludes by noting that as emissions reporting becomes mandatory and regulated, inconsistencies in measuring emissions will be reduced, but many automakers are not adhering to international standards.
