Gasoline prices are rising just in time for the New Year. However, not as much as the higher CO2 price would have suggested. When will climate money come as compensation?
The year 2024 begins with higher prices for gasoline and diesel. After fuel prices had previously fallen for a long time according to surveys by the ADAC car club, particularly due to the weak economy, they rose noticeably at the turn of the year. However, you have to be careful with this observation: Because the prices at practically all gas stations fluctuate greatly throughout the day, you cannot simply compare arbitrary prices at different times from New Year’s Eve to New Year’s Eve, otherwise the price jump may appear larger than it actually was.
According to figures from the Internet portal Clever Tanken, the daily average price for diesel rose from 1.686 euros on New Year’s Eve to 1.70 euros per liter on New Year’s Day. Super E10 rose in price on average from 1,713 to 1,728 euros. This means that a price increase was observed at the turn of the year – which has so far been lower than some expected.
