ADAC: Fuel is too expensive – economy

According to ADAC, fuel prices in Germany are too high. Although premium petrol and especially diesel were much cheaper in the first half of the year than in the same period of 2022, even that is still too expensive for the transport club’s fuel market expert, Jürgen Albrecht. “It is striking how much the price of diesel has fallen in the last six months,” said Albrecht. “But that’s actually just normalization compared to the extreme swings of the past year.” On Sunday, premium petrol cost a nationwide daily average of 1.788 euros per liter, diesel 1.602 euros. “It is unlikely that prices will fall quickly in the coming weeks,” said Albrecht. The mineral oil companies would hardly give up the more comfortable margins that they have established voluntarily.
