Horror at Hungarian petrol stations: price rise continues with petrol at 6-month high
Change language:
Oil prices are at a 7-month high, which will be reflected in the prices at Hungarian petrol stations. Gasoline will rise by HUF 4 and diesel by HUF 7 from Friday, 5 April.
According to a quick analysis by holtankoljak.hu, this is mainly due to the deterioration of the forint and the rise in Brent oil prices, Economx reports. After Friday’s increase, the average price of gasoline will be HUF 645 (EUR 1.65) and HUF 652 (EUR 1.67) for diesel.
The last time petrol cost this much was at the end of September and beginning of October last year, when it averaged HUF 647,

Reasons for petrol price increase
The reason for the price increase, among other factors, is that dealers are now trying to stock up on gasoline as the peak summer season approaches, when people use their cars much more and 95 petrol becomes a hit product, for example for holidays.
