Energy prices: According to the study, fuel discounts do not fully appeal to drivers

According to an evaluation by the Ifo Institute, the fuel discount that has been in effect since October 1st is not completely, but largely, well received by drivers. For diesel, an average of 15 cents of the 17 cent tax cut per liter was passed on in the first five days, said Florian Neumeier, deputy head of the Ifo Center for Financial Science. For the E5 premium gasoline it was an average of 16 cents and for the Super E10 it was 15 cents.

According to the information, the tax cut was initially passed on in full when it was introduced last Thursday. At the weekend, however, the transfer remained “incomplete”.
