40% of buyers with over 50,000 are already considering buying a Chinese car

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General29 August 2026 at 15:00

Chinese car brands are no longer considered a residual alternative or exclusively associated with the economic range. This is one of the main conclusions of a study conducted by the Spanish portal coches.net.

According to the research, 37.1% of buyers planning to acquire a vehicle in the future express interest in buying a Chinese-brand model. This value represents almost four in ten buyers.

The trend is even more pronounced among consumers with greater financial capacity. Among buyers with budgets over 50,000 euros, the intention to purchase a Chinese car rises to 41.3%, that is, more than 40% of this segment.

The study indicates that Chinese brands are gaining ground among buyers with higher budgets, no longer being associated only with low-cost vehicles in the automotive market.

Woman forced to return €12,706.87 to Social Security for receiving widow's pension for 2 years without entitlement as first wife of deceased: court 'confirmed'

A woman in Spain received for more than two years part of her ex-husband's widow's pension, after the National Social Security Institute granted her that right in 2016. However, when the second wife claimed and obtained in court the full pension, Social Security demanded the return of €12,706.87. Although the woman claimed to have acted in good faith and correctly communicated her situation, the Superior Court of Justice of Andalusia confirmed that the legal obligation to return improperly received benefits remains, even when the error was the organization's own. The court reduced the initial amount of €16,869.68, eliminating interest and surcharges that Social Security failed to justify.
