Price of diesel to be lowered in Hungary on Wednesday

The price of diesel will be slashed by HUF 8 per litre on Wednesday, while the price of petrol will not change. Accordingly, we should find the following (average) prices at the pumps:

• 95-octane petrol: HUF 650 / litre
• diesel: HUF 639 / litre

The price of petrol remains 14.0% or HUF 80 higher than at the end of 2023, while the price of diesel will be 7.8% or HUF 46 per litre higher.

For the first time since 2 August 2023, the price of diesel dropped under the price of petrol last Friday (19 April) and on Wednesday a litre of petrol will be HUF 11 more expensive than a litre of diesel, the widest (negative) gap since 28 July last year (HUF -14).
