Diesel and petrol prices fall at fastest rate since December
The Guardian|September 23, 2024
The price of petrol and diesel in the UK is falling at the fastest pace this year, with households paying about £4 less to fill up a family car than they did a month ago.
- Jack Simpson

Analysis from the RAC found that the average price of a litre of unleaded petrol was just above 136.15p, down 7p from the 142.86p recorded last month. Diesel costs almost 141p a litre, compared with just under 148p a month ago.

It marks the biggest drop in petrol and diesel prices since December last year, when prices also fell by 7p a litre.

The RAC said drivers should expect further drops and predicted that petrol could drop to 132p a litre, and diesel to 138p a litre, in the next fortnight, which would mark a three-year low for both fuels.
