Motorists in Hungary Still Pay Less at Pump Than in Neighbouring Countries
- 8 Sep 2025 7:10 AM
Hungarian motorists continued to pay less at the pump in August than in neighbouring countries, the National Economy Ministry said.
The price of petrol in Hungary averaged HUF 583/litre during the month, HUF 6 under the average in neighbouring countries, the ministry said, citing data compiled from the EU weekly Oil Bulletin by the Central Statistics Office (KSH).
The average price of diesel was HUF 593/litre, HUF 4 below the average in neighbouring countries.
Hungary's government earlier said it would intervene if motor fuel prices exceeded the average in neighbouring countries.
