Why It Matters
The government ended the cut in excise duty on diesel starting from November 8th. The Mimit Price Observatory constantly monitors the average costs charged throughout the national territory.
Based on the latest data collected by the Mimit fuel price observatory, the average price of fuel in 'self service' mode along the national road network is today equal to 2,000 euros per liter for petrol (same as yesterday and the previous day) and 2,232 euros per liter for diesel (yesterday it was 2,223 euros per litre). On the motorway network, however, the average self-service price is 2.028 euros per liter for petrol (down from 2.029 yesterday) and 2.287 euros per liter for diesel (yesterday at 2.277 euros per litre). The agreement on the price cap therefore keeps the price of petrol stable while with the end of the cut in excise duties which began yesterday 8 November, diesel fuel starts to rise again.
