Top Stories Tamfitronics

The latest price projections for South Africa’s motorists for September 2024 shows that excellent news lies ahead for petrol and diesel vehicle owners.

Both petrol and diesel are forecast to see massive decreases at the pumps next week.

Below, the latest projections as received by The South African website from theCentral Energy Fund (CEF), effective Thursday, 29 August.

FUEL PRICE CHANGE
Petrol 93 decrease of 89 cents
Petrol 95 decrease of 97 cents
Diesel 0.05% decrease of 79 cents
Diesel 0.005% decrease of 105 cents
Illuminating Paraffin decrease of 103 cents

If the market conditions were to remain consistent for the remainder of the month – an unlikely scenario with the rand/dollar exchange rate ever fluctuating and the oil price changing – a decrease of 89 cents is expected for petrol 93 octane motorists and a decrease of 97 cents for 95 users.

Meanwhile, diesel motorists would see something between a 79 and 105 cents per litre decrease.

Finally, illuminating paraffin is expected to decrease by 103 cents.
