The restriction is applied as normal. Ignoring it can not only ruin your plans, it can also be expensive: the fines for failing to comply with the program remain high in both the capital and the metropolitan area.
Beyond a road rule, Hoy No Circula seeks to reduce pollution and improve air quality in the Valley of Mexico, something key in a time where atmospheric conditions are usually adverse.
What cars cannot circulate on the last Saturday of the year?
According to him official calendar this Saturday, December 27, they cannot circulate:
-Vehicles with hologram 1 and plates with even endings (0, 2, 4, 6, 8).
-Cars with hologram 2, regardless of the license plate number.
-Vehicles with foreign license plates, regardless of hologram or finish.
If your car falls into any of these cases, it is best to leave it parked and look for mobility alternatives to close the year without setbacks.

How does Hoy No Circula Sabatino work?
The scheme is defined by hologram and plate termination:
Hologram 2: it does not circulate on any Saturday of the month.
Hologram 1:
Odd ending → first and third Saturday.
Even finish → second and fourth Saturday.
Fifth Saturday of the month: only cars with hologram 2 and foreign plates are restricted.
Before leaving this last Saturday of 2025, check your hologram and the final number of your license plate. Complying with Hoy No Circula not only avoids fines, it also helps close the year with a small contribution to the quality of the air we breathe every day.
