Price of petrol to be lowered in Hungary

Portfolio
Hungarian energy group Mol is to trim the wholesale gross list price of petrol by HUF 3 per litre on Friday (9 February), while the price of diesel will not be changed, fuel price tracking site holtankoljak.hu reported on Wednesday.

With the planned change, we should find the following retail prices (on average) at the pumps as of 9 February:

  • 95-octane petrol: HUF 600/litre 
  • Diesel: HUF 640/litre
