Fuel Prices in Germany Rise for Fifth Consecutive Week
Diesel and E10 prices increase further, driven by higher oil costs and a raised CO2 levy.
- The average price of diesel in Germany has risen to €1.69 per liter, up 10.4 cents compared to five weeks ago.
- E10 fuel now costs €1.741 per liter on average, an increase of 1 cent from the previous week and 8.6 cents over the past five weeks.
- This marks the fifth consecutive week of rising fuel prices across the country.
- The ADAC attributes the price hikes primarily to increasing global oil prices and the higher CO2 tax introduced at the start of the year, which adds about 3 cents per liter.
- Drivers can save slightly by refueling in the evening, as fuel prices tend to be lower during that time.
