Iberdrola | bp pulse inaugurated this Tuesday, September 8, a new charging hub for electric vehicles at Évora Retail Park. The infrastructure allows charging 12 vehicles simultaneously and includes ultra-fast equipment with a maximum power of 400 kW, distributed across six chargers: two at 400 kW, one at 150 kW, two at 50 kW and one at 22 kW.

The installation was developed in collaboration with Cushman & Wakefield, responsible for managing the commercial space since 2024. Évora Retail Park has approximately 8,000 square meters and belongs to the SCPI Cœur d'Europe real estate fund. The diversity of power levels allows for responding to different usage needs, from fast charging to longer stays.

With the opening of this hub, the Iberdrola | bp pulse network exceeds 500 operational charging points in Portugal. The partnership results from a joint venture equally owned by Iberdrola and bp, dedicated to the development of a public fast and ultra-fast charging network for electric vehicles in Portugal and Spain.

Dacia presented a complete renovation of the Spring, its first 100% electric vehicle, now built on the Twingo platform. The new model lost the fragile appearance of the previous one, gaining presence, dimension, interior space and a more appealing design. However, it maintains the aggressive pricing policy, which should be around 17,500 euros. Specifications include an 80 hp engine, a 27.5 kWh battery and a range of 250 km. The launch is scheduled for the end of the year.

China Automobile Dealers Association and ASFAC Discuss Automobile Credit Cooperation

The Association of Specialized Credit Institutions (ASFAC) met in Lisbon with a delegation from the China Automobile Dealers Association (CADA), which represents approximately 18,000 members in the Chinese automobile sector, to discuss cooperation opportunities in automobile financing, with special focus on new energy vehicles. ASFAC highlighted the relevance of southern Europe as a reference in automobile credit and presented the Portuguese market, whose sector represents more than 75% of credit granted to individuals for financing. However, ASFAC criticized the absence of concrete information on the transposition to Portugal of the new European consumer credit contracts regime, whose deadline ended in November 2025, warning that this uncertainty harms the preparation of institutions and the evaluation of new partnerships. The meeting had the support of the Embassy of China in Portugal and the law firm Broseta.
