Coco Trucker Girl Dies at 41 — Spanish Influencer’s Sudden Death Shocks Fans

Spanish influencer Oti Cabadas, better known as “Coco Trucker Girl,” has died at the age of 41 following a stroke suffered after a trucking event in Alcañiz, Spain.
Her death was confirmed by the Spanish Confederation of Freight Transport, which described her as a trailblazer for women in the trucking industry.
Cabadas, who had over 400,000 followers across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook, was celebrated for showcasing life on the road and advocating for gender equality in transport.
She passed away at Miguel Servet Hospital in Zaragoza after being airlifted from the event site.

Oti Cabadas, a prominent Spanish truck driver and social media influencer known as Coco Trucker Girl, passed away days after attending the 10th Annual Meet-Up of Classic and American Trucks in Alcañiz, Spain, held on October 25–26, 2025. According to Spanish media, Cabadas suffered a stroke shortly after the event and was immediately transported to Miguel Servet Hospital by helicopter. Despite medical efforts, she succumbed to complications related to the stroke. Her final Instagram post, shared on October 25, featured clips from the truck show and her signature green truck. Fans have since flooded her social media pages with tributes, calling her “an inspiration” and “a pioneer for women in trucking.”
