Portugal now has one of the best financial ratings in the Eurozone

TVI Notícias5 September 2026 at 14:02

Portugal saw its financial rating improved by the Fitch rating agency, which upgraded the country's rating to A+. This upgrade represents a significant increase in the assessment of Portuguese solvency.

With this rating, Portugal now positions itself at the same level as countries such as France and Belgium, becoming one of the best financial ratings in the Eurozone.

Fitch is one of the main global financial rating agencies, and its assessment influences the perception of markets regarding a country's ability to meet its financial obligations.

New Tires on Front or Back? Many Drivers Choose the Wrong Axle and This Is the Safest Option

When only two tires need to be replaced, many drivers place them on the front axle, but specialists and manufacturers such as Michelin and Euromaster recommend that new tires be on the rear axle. The main reason is related to vehicle stability: having greater traction at the back helps keep the car stable, especially on wet roads, where worn rear tires can cause oversteering. This recommendation applies even to front-wheel drive cars. In Portugal, the minimum tread depth is 1.6 mm, but specialists advise not to wait for the legal limit to replace tires. The ideal remains to change all four at the same time, but when that is not necessary, the safety rule is simple: tires with greater tread depth should always be at the back.

Explainer: The Volkswagen Crisis

Volkswagen is facing a severe crisis that has led to the presentation of a comprehensive restructuring plan, which includes cutting 100,000 jobs and reducing the car range by 50% by 2035. The German manufacturer intends to adapt to the transformations in the automotive sector and the decline in sales, especially in the European market. In Portugal, the Autoeuropa factory in Palmela will not be affected by these cuts, having been excluded from the restructuring plan.
