Vehicle Fuel Sales In Hungary Lifted By Petrol Tourism

Vehicle fuel sales in Hungary climbed in the double digits in the first quarter from the same period a year earlier, the Tuesday issue of business daily Világgazdaság said, citing figures of the Hungarian Petroleum Association (MÁSZ).

Petrol sales climbed by 29.5% to 383 million litres, while diesel sales increased by 36.7% to 712 million litres.

Even excluding the effect of the low, pandemic base, vehicle fuel sales rose by around 20%, the paper said, pointing to petrol tourism as the “main reason” for the increase, MÁSZ secretary-general Ottó Grád told the paper.

Hungary’s government temporarily capped retail petrol and diesel prices at 480 forints (EUR 1.28) per litre from November 15 to ease accelerating inflation.
