Fuel prices are still panicking in recent weeks. An upward trend that the war in Ukraine will necessarily maintain.
In March 2021, a liter of unleaded cost 1.4904 euros. A year later, from energy crises to geopolitical crises, unleaded is now stabilizing above 1.80 euros (1.8133 precisely), an increase of +32 cents.
Same trend for diesel, the increase of which was even greater since the liter increased by +36 cents in one year. In March 2021, a liter of diesel cost 1.3758 euros on average in France. It is now at 1.7415 euros.
And the trend will continue to grow, particularly under the effect of the war in Ukraine. Unleaded will therefore remain above 1.80 euros per liter for many weeks.
As for diesel, it increased by +2% in one week. A brutal progression which might take it beyond 1.80 euro per liter within two weeks.
The figures for the week, published every Monday, will therefore be particularly scrutinized this week once more.
In our departments, this increase is also present. In the Aude, the cheapest station displays diesel at 1,670 euros per liter (Carrefour Saissac) while you have to pay 2,199 euros per liter in a Limoux station.
In the Pyrénées-Orientales, it is the Intermarché de Saint-André which offers the cheapest diesel (1,728) while it is in an Estagel station that it is the most expensive in the department: 2,058 euros the liter.
