SMMT URGES GOVERNMENT TO REVIEW ZEV MANDATEDuring the SMMT Electrified event, held last week, the call went out for an urgent review of the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate, as the reality is far below the assumptions that went into the amount of registrations demanded each year. Government representative immediately poured cold water on that hope, though. A review will not begin until 2027.

Tariffs were imposed by the EU on Chinese made EVs, this hit the Tavascan as the company chose to not pass the costs onto customers. They are also investing in a new battery factory, developing new models and updating existing.

The company announced there would be a new (or is it?) cost cutting drive, which will include up to 50,000 job loses. The aim is for cost savings around €6 billion per year by 2030.

They make it explicitly clear they are blaming the United States change in policy when it comes to EVs. They expect the write-down will cost them between £1.6 and £2.7 billion, this year, with more to come in 2026-27. Additionally, their products in other markets are not meeting customer requirements.

Home EV charging costs are shielded for now by the energy price cap — fixed at 24.67p per kWh for electricity until end of June — but wholesale price rises could push the cap higher from July, making both home wallbox and public charging more expensive.​EUROPEAN FLEETS COULD SAVE €246BN BY 2030A new EY and Eurelectric report finds that fully electrifying Europe's corporate fleets could deliver up to €246 billion in cumulative savings and cut one billion tonnes of CO2 by 2030. However, the authors warn that cheaper running costs alone will not drive mass uptake, calling for coordinated action from manufacturers, policymakers, grid operators and finance providers to tackle high upfront costs, uncertain residual values, and charging infrastructure delays.CUPRA BORN FACELIFT BRINGS SHARP NOSE, SMALL TWEAKSCupra has facelifted the Born with a "shark nose" front end, triangular matrix LED headlights, a continuous rear light strip, and new 235 mm tyres across all five wheel options, while the aerodynamically improved 79 kWh variants now claim around 600 km (373 miles) of WLTP range. A new entry "Born Plus" trim pairs a 58 kWh battery with a 140 kW motor — figures that match Ford's Capri LFP option and strongly suggest a switch to LFP cells from the updated MEB+ platform — though Cupra has not confirmed drivetrain details and appears to be saving that announcement for a related reveal, likely the VW ID.3 facelift later in 2026.FORD EV SALES SINK 71% AFTER LIGHTNING EXITFord's US EV sales collapsed 71% in February 2026 to just 2,122 units, the steepest monthly drop in its EV history, driven by the discontinuation of the F-150 Lightning and the expiry of the federal EV tax credit. Ford's Model e division lost $4.8 billion in 2025 and is forecast to lose another $4–5 billion in 2026, with profitability not expected until 2029; the company has already booked a $19.5 billion writedown and is pivoting to a new ~$30,000 midsize electric pickup it hopes will revive the business by 2027.LUCID PATCHES GRAVITY SOFTWARE AGAINLucid Motors has pushed software update 3.4.4 to the Gravity SUV, targeting AC charging improvements and Drive Assist availability, following a January update that resolved around 95% of earlier software issues — with the car averaging a new update every 24 days since launch. Lucid has closed its online configurator for both the Air and Gravity while it prepares its 2027 model year announcement, and Air owners face a $950 hardware upgrade bill to access the newer UX 3.0 platform already running in the Gravity, due to arrive by autumn 2026.MITSUBISHI READIES LEAF-BASED EV FOR CANADAMitsubishi is preparing its first all-new model since the Eclipse Cross for Canadian dealerships in 2026, built on Nissan's CMF-EV platform and LEAF architecture, with spy shots showing a heavily camouflaged prototype that shares the LEAF's roofline, proportions, and rear hatch panel. Both models will be built side by side at Nissan's Kaminokawa plant in Japan, and Mitsubishi may receive the smaller battery pack to undercut the LEAF on entry price — a strategy that would see Nissan supply the foundations while a cheaper sibling competes for the same buyers.ALPITRONIC UNVEILS HYC400 SERIES 2 CHARGERAlpitronic has launched the HYC400 Series 2, retaining the 400 kW maximum output of its predecessor while upgrading to a 22-inch touchscreen (up from 15.6 inches), second-generation silicon carbide power stacks, and a higher continuous output current of 600 A (up from 500 A). The unit maintains 97.5% charging efficiency but standby power consumption rises significantly from 43 W to under 100 W, and cable options narrow to a single 5-metre length; Alpitronic will sell both generations simultaneously to suit different site requirements.​APTERA SHOWS FIRST VALIDATION-LINE VEHICLE PHOTOAptera Motors has published the first photo of a vehicle off its validation assembly line, marking a milestone for its three-wheeled, solar-assisted EV that claims 400 miles of range from a 44 kWh battery and up to 40 miles of daily solar charging, classified as a motorcycle to bypass certain safety regulations. The launch edition price has risen to $40,000 — a $9,300 increase from prior estimates — though a $28,000 model is planned for the future, and with nearly 50,000 pre-orders and a stated daily capacity of 80–100 vehicles, Aptera claims it could fulfil all orders within 500 days of full production, though the end-of-year delivery timeline remains uncertain.​GEELY TARGETS DEFENDER WITH GALAXY BATTLESHIPGeely plans to launch the Galaxy Battleship in the UK in 2028, a blocky hybrid 4x4 aimed squarely at the Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser, with a production design expected to stay 90–95% true to the Galaxy Cruiser concept shown at the 2025 Shanghai Motor Show. Built on the GEA Evo platform with steer- and brake-by-wire, it may use an AI-driven plug-in hybrid system with a stated output of around 858 bhp, and Geely is promising an interior that surpasses the Defender's for luxury — a bold claim for the Chinese brand's first foray into the 4x4 segment.​EU UNVEILS LOCAL-CONTENT RULES FOR CLEAN TECHThe European Commission has unveiled the Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA), tying over €2 trillion in public procurement and subsidies to low-carbon and "Made-in-EU" conditions across sectors including EVs, steel, cement, and wind turbines, with the goal of raising manufacturing's share of EU economic output from 14% to 20% by 2035. China is excluded from the initial trusted-partner list — which includes the UK, Canada, and the US — and foreign investments above €100 million from countries controlling 40%+ of global production would face strict conditions including capped 49% foreign ownership and mandatory technology transfer; BMW and Mercedes oppose the Act over fears of higher costs, while Renault backs it and the text must still clear the European Parliament before becoming law.​

German wait times now stretch up to 17 months, prompting Volvo to negotiate shorter summer breaks with unions, mirroring BMW's own ramp-up for the iX3. VOLVO PUSHES NEW UX TO 2.5 MILLION CARS  Volvo is rolling out a major over‑the‑air update to around 2.5 million vehicles, bringing its latest infotainment system from the EX30, EX90 and EX60 models to cars as old as 2020. The update ushers in a unified user interface and, later this spring, a switch from Google Assistant to the more conversational Google Gemini AI. CUPRA RAVAL SPIED UNCOVERED AHEAD OF MARCH 2026 REVEAL  Cupra's upcoming Raval — its most affordable EV yet — has been spotted fully uncovered during Scandinavian winter testing. Riding on the new MEB+ platform with two battery options, it launches mid‑2026 from around £23,000 to rival the Renault 5 and Peugeot e‑208 in the urban EV segment.  DENMARK HITS 81.6% BEV SHARE IN FEBRUARY  Battery‑electric vehicles made up 81.6% of Denmark's new car sales in February, surging to 94.4% among private buyers. The shift reflects strong government incentives and rapid public adoption as EVs become the mainstream choice in the Danish market.  2026 WORLD CAR AWARDS SHORTLISTS TILT ELECTRIC  Electric models dominate the 2026 World Car Awards shortlist, with the BMW iX3, Nissan Leaf and Mercedes‑Benz CLA leading major categories. Luxury and performance finalists like the Lucid Gravity and Hyundai Ioniq 6 N further show how EVs now span every segment from affordable urban cars to high‑end models.  2027 BMW IX4 SET FOR X4 REPLACEMENT  BMW's 2027 iX4 coupe SUV is testing in Sweden, set to replace the X4 with two all‑wheel‑drive variants and a 108 kWh battery offering up to 800 km WLTP range. It adopts BMW's latest design language and a minimalist cabin similar to the iX3, with a large central screen and refreshed controls.  BARCELONA TO PAY €600 FOR ELECTRIC MOPED SWAPS  Barcelona will grant residents €600 to trade in petrol mopeds for new electric ones starting March 2026, covering up to 40% of the purchase price. With €15 million in funding through 2030, the scheme could replace around 24,000 mopeds and is open on a first‑come, first‑served basis.  ENBW SIGNS MULTI-YEAR XCHARGE DEAL FOR HYPERNET  German utility EnBW has sealed a multi‑year deal with XCharge to supply 400 kW DC fast chargers for its HyperNet network after successful trials. The high‑power C7 units, supporting dual CCS connectors and liquid‑cooled cables, will serve high‑throughput highway and hub charging locations.  STELLANTIS SETS 2026 SPAIN BUILD FOR LEAPMOTOR B10  Stellantis will start producing the Leapmotor B10 electric SUV in Spain in late 2026, marking the brand's European manufacturing debut. The €29,990 model anchors Leapmotor's expansion through Stellantis's joint venture, which now runs over 800 European sales points and continues rapid growth.  THATCHAM TARGETS EV WRITE-OFFS WITH REPAIR BLUEPRINT  Thatcham Research has launched an EV Blueprint to stop repairable electric cars being written off after minor crashes by improving safety, diagnostics and battery repair standards. The plan calls for modular, serviceable battery designs, open diagnostic tools, and replaceable safety components to cut repair costs and extend EV lifespan.

The ID.4 leads the tally with roughly 901,000 units sold globally, while the brand now looks ahead to four new affordable EVs including the ID. Polo, arriving in 2026.ŠKODA GIVES SUPERB HATCH A 200 KW PHEVŠkoda has unveiled a 200 kW plug-in hybrid for the Superb Hatch, pairing a 1.5 TSI petrol engine with an 85 kW electric motor and a 25.7 kWh battery — making it the most powerful combustion-engine model in Škoda's current lineup. The launch reflects growing demand: one in four Superb models now sells with a PHEV powertrain, and more than 68,000 Superb iV models have been delivered since 2019.CANADA OPENS CHINA-BUILT EV QUOTA AT 6.1% TARIFFCanada began accepting import permit applications from 1 March 2026, allowing up to 49,000 China-built EVs per year to enter at a 6.1% tariff — a sharp cut from the 106.1% rate imposed in 2024 — on a first-come, first-served basis. Tesla, Polestar, and Volvo are considered frontrunners to use the allocation, which Ottawa plans to scale to 70,000 vehicles annually by 2030, with 50% of that expanded quota reserved for EVs below a set price threshold.CUPRA SETS 5 MARCH BORN FACELIFT REVEALCupra will unveil the Born facelift on 5 March, bringing harder-edged front and rear styling that aligns the model visually with the newer Terramar and Tavascan, plus expected interior upgrades including more premium materials and a revised infotainment layout. The refresh matters commercially: the Born has sold nearly 30,000 units in the UK alone since its 2022 launch, and Cupra will also soon introduce the smaller Raval electric hatchback from approximately £23,000.RANGE ROVER VELAR EV SPOTTED ON WINTER TESTA Range Rover Velar EV prototype has been caught in European winter testing, revealing a dramatically reshaped body with a cab-forward stance, angular haunches, and a fastback-leaning roofline that breaks sharply from traditional boxy SUV design. Crucially, it will be the first Jaguar Land Rover model built on the new 800-volt Electric Modular Architecture (EMA) platform, which is engineered to deliver over 300 miles of range and faster charging capability.RIVIAN LAUNCHES RAD PERFORMANCE SUB-BRANDRivian has launched the Rivian Adventure Department (RAD), a dedicated performance sub-brand targeting harder and faster off-road driving that puts it in direct competition with Land Rover's Octa and Ford's Raptor line. RAD formalises the engineering team already responsible for the R1S and R1T Quad Motor variants, giving Rivian's performance ambitions an official identity and a public-facing platform.TESLA TELLS MODEL Y OWNERS TO CHARGE GENTLYTesla has updated the Model Y Owner's Manual to advise owners to rely on home Level 1 or Level 2 charging for daily use — keeping limits at 80% — and to reserve Superchargers for road trips, warning that frequent DC fast charging accelerates long-term battery degradation. For long-term storage, Tesla recommends parking at approximately 50% state of charge and flagging that features like Sentry Mode and Dog Mode can silently drain the battery at roughly 1% per day while the car sits idle.VOLVO PLOTS FASTER ZERO-EMISSION TRUCK PUSHVolvo Group is accelerating its battery-electric heavy truck strategy from a position of strength, holding a 19% share of the European heavy-truck market for the second consecutive year. Its flagship FH Aero Electric packs 780 kWh of batteries for up to 600 km of range and supports megawatt charging that takes the pack from 20% to 80% in just 45 minutes — aligning recharge stops with mandatory driver rest breaks.LYTEN TAKES OVER NORTHVOLT'S SWEDISH BATTERY ASSETSLyten has completed its acquisition of Northvolt's Swedish operations — covering Northvolt Ett, Ett Expansion, and Northvolt Labs — in a deal encompassing nearly $5 billion in book value, 16 GWh of manufacturing capacity, and Europe's largest battery R&D centre. The company plans to restart lithium-ion NMC cell production at the Skellefteå site in the second half of 2026, and will use Northvolt Labs in Västerås to advance its proprietary lithium-sulfur battery technology.BRIM EXPLORER ORDERS TWO ELECTRIC TRIMARANSOslo-based Brim Explorer has signed contracts for two fully electric trimarans — each 24 metres long, carrying 180 passengers — which the firm claims will be the world's most efficient battery-powered vessels upon their spring 2027 delivery. The boats will operate silent, emission-free sightseeing cruises along Norway's coast with a battery-only range of 100 nautical miles at speeds up to 20 knots, expanding Brim's existing five-vessel fleet.

Het gebouw verzakt, het contract loopt af, en 160 servers moeten naar een nieuw thuis. Twee datacentra tegelijk verhuizen — met een team van vrijwilligers. Welkom bij ColoClue. Netwerkvereniging ColoClue is een coöperatieve colocatievereniging: een club van zo'n 250 leden die samen serverruimte huren in professionele datacentra en daar hun eigen hardware ophangen. Geen SLA's, geen commerciële dienst — maar wel een eigen netwerk (AS8283), verbindingen met meerdere internet exchanges en een indrukwekkende hoeveelheid veteranen uit de internetbranche. Bestuurslid Tjerk Jan Vonk en medeoprichter Niels Raijer vertellen over de dubbele datacenterverhuizing die deze zomer op het programma staat. Van EU Networks (het pand verzakt) en Cupra naar Iron Mountain in Haarlem en NorthC in Amsterdam. Daarnaast: een nieuw remote rack in Enschede, een partnerschap met AMS-IX via de Bright Networks Club, en Randals zoektocht om twee servers op één colocatieplek te hangen zonder dubbel te betalen. Over Tjerk Jan Vonk Tjerk Jan Vonk is freelance netwerkarchitect en sinds april 2024 bestuurslid bij ColoClue, waar hij de dubbele datacentermigratie leidt.

This week on Line Noise a legend returns: Karl Bartos was first on Line Noise in 2022 around the release of his autobiography; The Sound of the Machine, My Life in Kraftwerk and Beyond. In 2026 he returns and the emphasis is on his solo career and especially, his debut solo album Communication, which was re-released by Bureau B last year and which initially came out in 2003. We talk about leaving Kraftwerk, liberation, the power of a group and his love of The Beatles, getting away from computers, guitars, Johnny Marr, remixing Planet Rock, the Telephone Call - he even plays us a few bars, Esperanto and so much more, in a wide-ranging and very warm interview. I hope you enjoy listening half as much as I enjoyed doing it. Line Noise comes with the support of Cupra. Photo by Marion von der Mehden.

This week Line Noise gives you two French house legends for the price of one: Busy P and DJ Falcon. Busy P is Pedro Winter, producer, DJ, founder of Ed Banger records and - yes - once manager of Daft Punk, the lynchpin of Parisian dance. Stéphane Quême is DJ Falcon, whose very first productions became the brilliant Hello My Name Is DJ Falcon EP back in 1999; he later formed half of Together with Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter and is currently working with Alan Braxe. Ben Cardew spoke to them at the Nitsa club in Barcelona ahead of their DJ gig about their relationship, DJing back to back, Falcon's first productions, the birth of Ed Banger and so much more, including Pedro Winter giving the full background story to that night on October 25 at the Centre Pompidou when Thomas Bangalter returned to DJing alongside Fred Again and Busy P.

Today on Line Noise we welcome one of the most brilliant minds in modern music, Matthew Herbert, a man who has sampled a pig from birth to plate; formed a Brexit Big Band; and headed up the BBC's legendary Radiophonic Workshop. He still found time to create one of the most dazzlingy beautiful records in house music with Bodily Functions; and, only last year, released the brilliant Clay long player with Momoko Gill. This Saturday (January 17, 2026) he is playing Poly-Rythmo Club at La Paloma. In the interview, we talked about everything from making a record from the sun to the state of dance music, plus Matthew gives a surprisingly in-depth answer to which of his songs he would play to my mum and reveals what he considers to be the most beautiful piece of music he has ever made. Enjoy. Line Noise comes with the support of Cupra.

CUPRA ohne Tradition – aber mit Haltung. In dieser Episode von Moove – der New Mobility Podcast nehmen wir euch mit hinter die Kulissen einer Marke, die bewusst aneckt, polarisiert und genau deshalb erfolgreich ist. Vom Autohaus als Wohnzimmer über Padel statt Golf bis zur Generation Raval: Sven Schubert erklärt, wie CUPRA mit vergleichsweise kleinen Mitteln große Wirkung erzielt – und warum Elektromobilität, Nachhaltigkeit und Emotionalität kein Widerspruch sind. Eine Folge über Marketing mit Mut, Mobilität mit Charakter und die Frage, wie viel Rebellion eine Automarke heute braucht.

Ben Cardew spoke to Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith about loss, love, death and more as she prepared for the release of her new album Thoughts on the Future. Also on the agenda: body music, the most romantic song in the world, farming, yoga and silence, in 40 illuminating minutes. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra. Photo by Tom Saccenti.

Basic Unit are the Line Noise artist of the year for 2025, for the re-release of their classic Timeline album and the release of their first new material in 20 years, the Redux EP. Ben Cardew spoke to Ben England, half of Basic Unit alongside Rick Dallaway, about defying expectations, progressive house, Autechre, techstep, the unique way in which Timeline was made, cult success and mad production skill. Plus, we discuss falling in and out of love with drum & bass. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra.

Sébastien Guigues ha costruito il proprio percorso nell'automotive attraversando tre realtà molto diverse tra loro: la disciplina tedesca del Gruppo Volkswagen, l'energia spagnola di SEAT e CUPRA, e infine il ritorno in Francia alla guida di Renault. Oggi guida Renault Italia e, insieme a lui, proviamo a capire cosa significa coordinare un team in un settore che, nell'ultimo decennio, è stato ridefinito da innovazioni tecnologiche, cambiamenti sociali e nuovi modi di vivere la mobilità.

Ben Cardew spoke to hugely respected author and DJ Bill Brewster about Burn It Up: The Rise Of British Dance Music 1986-1991, his new compilation for Cherry Red, which traces a fascinating period in British dance music. They talked about Samantha Fox and Steinski; Hans Zimmer, Mel and Kim, the Paradise Garage; and why house took off in the UK where hip hop didn't really. Plus they discuss how to balance recognising dance music history without being a dance-floor bore and Bill talks about his excellent books with Frank Broughton, Last Night a DJ Saved My Life and How To DJ (Properly). Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra.

Ben Cardew spoke to journalist Jim Butler about A Disco Pogo Tribute To LCD Soundsystem, a new book from the Disco Pogo crew that was published at the start of November 2025. They covered the unique appeal of LCD, Disco Pogo's history with the band, the godlike Nancy Whang and dance music history. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra.

Ben Cardew spoke to techno titan Paul Kalkbrenner about why The Essence is his best album - and the first to feature no filler - the wonky dance productions of the 90s, playing to half a million people, Depeche Mode, melancholia, Stromae and why he will never play Mein Freund Onze live.

Quizás el título podría ser menos duro, algo así como “marcas que PUEDEN desaparecer...y A LO PEOR es que se lo merecen”. Porque en la jungla del automóvil, la historia no te salva. Algunas marcas, por sus errores, su soberbia o su incapacidad para ver el futuro, parece que están cavando su propia tumba. Y hoy te vamos a decir cuáles y por qué… y esperamos equivocarnos. 1. Aston Martin. Propietario: Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings plc (Consorcio de inversores). País: Reino Unido. ¿Por qué se lo merece? Porque parece que no aprende. Ha sido rescatada una y otra vez por inversores que se enamoran del nombre, pero la gestión sigue siendo un pozo sin fondo. Queman dinero a un ritmo alarmante, la deuda es gigantesca y su plan de electrificación ha sido errático. 2. Chrysler. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Estados Unidos. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Por abandono de funciones. Una marca no puede sobrevivir sin coches que vender. La han dejado morir lentamente, sin darle nuevos modelos. Ahora prometen un futuro eléctrico con concepts como el Halcyon, pero es muy poco y llega muy tarde. Su final será el resultado de décadas de negligencia corporativa. 3. DS Automobiles. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Francia. ¿Por qué se merece desaparecer? Porque el consumidor no es tonto. DS no ofrece una tecnología propia, ni plataformas exclusivas, ni una experiencia que justifique su sobreprecio. Es un intento de "quiero y no puedo" que el mercado jamás ha comprado. 4. Fisker. Propietario: Fisker Inc. (En bancarrota). País: Estados Unidos. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? No puedes lanzar un producto a medio hacer y esperar que la gente pague por ser tu beta tester. Ahora, la empresa está en bancarrota, los coches pierden su valor a un ritmo vertiginoso y los propietarios están abandonados. Es la crónica de una muerte anunciada. 5. Infinity. Propietario: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. País: Japón. ¿Por qué merece estar en esta lista? Por pura negligencia. Nissan nunca supo o nunca quiso invertir de verdad en Infiniti para hacerla competitiva a nivel global. La abandonó a su suerte. Se retiraron de Europa en 2020 sin hacer ruido y en su mercado principal, Estados Unidos, sus ventas son irrelevantes. Ahora dicen que se van a centrar en SUVs eléctricos. Infiniti es la prueba de que, si no cuidas tu marca, se marchita y desaparece sin que nadie la eche de menos. 6. Jaguar. Propietario: Tata Motors (a través de Jaguar Land Rover). País: Reino Unido / India. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Su campaña de "rebranding" fue un ejercicio de egolatría sin enseñar un solo coche. Han enfadado a sus clientes fieles y han desaparecido del mapa. Esta apuesta de "todo o nada" es de una arrogancia sin límites. Si los nuevos eléctricos, que serán carísimos, no son un éxito absoluto, Jaguar no tendrá nada a lo que recurrir. Y será una gran pérdida para todos los aficionados. 7. Lancia. Propietario: Stellantis. País: Italia. Se merece estar en esta lista por el abandono y el maltrato al que ha sido sometida por sus propio dueños. 8. Lucid Motors. Propietario: Lucid Group, Inc. (Principal accionista: Fondo de Inversión Pública de Arabia Saudí). País: Estados Unidos / Arabia Saudí. ¿Por qué merece desaparecer? Porque su supervivencia depende exclusivamente del dinero del fondo soberano de Arabia Saudí. No es una empresa viable por sí misma. Su producción es mínima y no hace más que quemar miles de millones. Es una empresa artificialmente sostenida que demuestra que un buen producto no es suficiente sin un plan de negocio realista. 9. SEAT. Propietario: Grupo Volkswagen. País: España / Alemania. ¿Por qué es un final merecido? Porque, estratégicamente, Volkswagen decidió que no había sitio para SEAT, a medio camino entre Skoda y la propia Volkswagen. En lugar de potenciarla, crearon Cupra para quedarse con la parte más rentable del pastel: los coches más aspiracionales. Han canibalizado a la madre para alimentar a la hija. 10. Wey / Ora. Propietario: Great Wall Motor (GWM). País: China. Merecen estar aquí como representantes de la arrogancia de algunos fabricantes chinos, que pensaban que llegar a Europa era un camino de rosas. El mercado europeo es maduro y muy competitivo. No basta con hacer un coche aceptable; necesitas una estrategia de precios, de marca y de postventa sólida. Muchas de estas nuevas marcas desaparecerán de nuestro mercado tan rápido como llegaron. Conclusión. La industria está en un punto de inflexión brutal, y la arrogancia, la falta de visión o la mala gestión son pecados capitales. Estas diez marcas son la prueba de que en este negocio no se vive del pasado, sino de la capacidad de acertar con el futuro.

Ben Cardew spoke to Turbotito and Ragz from Naya Beat Records about Mohinder Kaur Bhamra's Punjabi Disco, cult classics, South Asian dance and electronic music and digging in India. Line Noise is supported by Cupra.

It may be 10 months or so to Primavera Sound 2026 but it's never too early to get planning. On this special Line Noise, Ben Cardew and Johann Wald look at the best electronic music in the Primavera Sound 2026 line up, from live legends to weird sh*t. Line Noise comes with the support of Cupra.
