Motorists in Perth and Mandurah are advised to fill up now if they need to, with petrol prices set to rise tomorrow. After today motorists will likely have to wait a week before petrol prices are again at the bottom of the price cycle.
FuelWatch reports that, from 6am tomorrow (Wednesday 27 December 2023), the average price of Perth’s regular unleaded petrol (ULP) will increase by over 34 cents per litre (cpl) to 200.3 cpl with Coles Express hiking up to 215.9 cpl; Ampol up to 214.9 cpl; Caltex up to 213.9 cpl; 7-Eleven, EG Ampol and BP up to 209.9 cpl; Vibe up to 201.5 cpl; and United up to 198.5 cpl.
Despite the average hike tomorrow, there are still 34 individual sites offering prices below 163 cpl, so consumers should check the FuelWatch website to find the lowest price near them. Buying fuel from the cheapest site rather than the most expensive, a difference of 62 cpl, means motorists can potentially save $37 on a 60 litre tank.
