Fuel price cuts bring relief to motorists
Story 1
South African motorists will pay less at the pump from today after fuel prices dropped at midnight.
Petrol is down by R2.01 a litre for 93 octane and R1.96 a litre for 95 octane, while diesel has decreased by between R3.14 and R3.59 a litre.
Illuminating paraffin is R5.23 a litre cheaper, while LP gas has increased by 16-cents a kilogram nationally and 19 cents a kilogram in the Western Cape.
The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy says the price cuts are due to lower international oil prices and a stronger rand.
