Good News for South African Drivers: Petrol and Diesel Prices Set to Decrease

 It's been a tough year for South African drivers, with petrol and diesel prices reaching record highs. But there's some good news on the horizon: petrol prices will be coming down by R2.06 per litre from midnight, while diesel will see a drop of between R2.81 and R2.69 per litre from 50ppm and 500ppm, respectively.



This means that a litre of 95 unleaded petrol will cost R21.40 inland and R20.75 on the coast. While this decrease won't immediately ease the high cost of living in South Africa, it is a welcome relief for drivers who have been feeling the pinch at the pump.

The high food price inflation in South Africa has also been a major contributor to the current high cost of living. However, the decrease in petrol and diesel prices will hopefully help to alleviate some of the financial burden for South African households.

It's important to note that these price decreases are only temporary, and it's unclear at this time if they will be extended beyond the current month. However, for now, South African drivers can enjoy a bit of relief at the petrol station. Let's hope that this trend continues in the coming months and years.
