XHTPZ-TDT is a television station in Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico broadcasting on virtual channel 4. It is the Televisa local station for Tampico, with local news and programming alongside a selection of other Televisa programs.

History[edit]

XHTPZ was awarded as part of the 1994 62-station concession to Radiotelevisora de México Norte, a subsidiary of Televisa. It broadcast on analog channel 24.

On August 26, 2018, XHTPZ moved to virtual channel 4.

In 2018, the concessions of all non-network Televisa Regional stations were consolidated in the concessionaire Televisora de Occidente, S.A. de C.V., as part of a corporate reorganization of Televisa's concessionaires.
