Correct answer
No, for that private car without a trailer.
No; it is not part of its general mandatory equipment. Annex XII requires the prescribed V-16 device, reflective vest and a spare wheel with tools or an alternative system providing mobility, subject to its limitations. For a car registered in Spain, from 1 January 2026 the V-16 must be connected and certified; two triangles do not replace this duty. Other vehicle types or transport regimes have different fire-extinguisher requirements.
