Overview
- Faconauto's general assembly reaffirmed Marta Blázquez as president and kept the same executive team to serve the 2026–2029 term.
- Blázquez set a target to move Spain's market toward about 1.3 million annual vehicle sales as a way to replace one of Europe’s oldest and least safe car fleets.
- She made electrification a central pillar while endorsing technology neutrality and called for steady charging infrastructure, stable purchase incentives, and coherent fiscal rules to support the shift.
- Faconauto will coordinate closely with manufacturers under incoming Anfac president Markus Haupt and suppliers such as Sernauto to press Parliament to activate the Plan Nacional in the congressional vote scheduled for 18 June.
- The association represents 2,255 dealerships, about 5,300 retail points and 166,300 jobs, so its push could affect consumer costs, dealer employment and the timing of policy measures that enable faster fleet renewal and decarbonization.
