🇩🇪 New records keep being set for fuel prices

On Tuesday, September 15, the average price of Super E10 reached 2.30 euros per liter — already the fourth record in a row. Diesel rose to 2.422 euros, and since the end of August, gasoline has become about 52 cents more expensive, while diesel has risen by 68 cents. ⁠New data were published on September 16.

For a standard 50-liter tankful, this means paying about 26 euros more for E10 and 34 euros more for diesel compared with the period before the war with Iran. Merz has already promised relief measures; the SPD is proposing a windfall tax, a price cap is being discussed, and Economics Minister Katherina Reiche prefers targeted payments.

The war in the Middle East is becoming a very everyday problem for the German government — it has moved directly from the television news onto the price tags at every gas station.
