Fuel prices have reached a new all-time high, reaching a new low for consumers. The average national suggested retail price (GLA) of a liter of Euro95 (E10) has reached €2.50 for the first time. This is apparent from information from consumer collective UnitedConsumers.
A new day now also means a new record price for fuel. The average national suggested retail price (GLA) of a liter of Euro95 (E10) is, according to UnitedConsumers – which bases the average national suggested retail price on the suggested retail prices of the largest oil companies – at no less than €2.50. This means that the fear expressed by the consumer collective at the beginning of this week that the petrol price would reach €2.50 this week has become a painful reality.
Yesterday, the average national suggested retail price of a liter of Euro95 (E10) was €2.48. This time the increase is therefore not as huge as earlier this week. The average national suggested retail price for a liter of diesel is €2.36, a liter of LPG costs €1.31. Do you prefer to throw Euro98 (E5) in your car? Then no less than €2.59 per liter will disappear from your bank account, UnitedConsumers calculates.
The ever-increasing fuel prices are a direct result of the war in Ukraine, although prices rose to great heights before that armed conflict. In October last year, the average suggested retail price of a liter of petrol broke through the €2.00 barrier for the first time. That same month, the €2.10 was reached for the first time and at the end of February this year the suggested retail price of a liter of Euro95 had already passed the €2.20 limit. In just a few weeks, an additional €0.30 has been added. Fortunately, you do not pay the average national suggested retail price everywhere, but especially along the highways.
