Energy Insight: Prices: UK retail prices for petrol, diesel & LPG for road vehicles - showing duty and tax (DSS12)
9 April 2024 Notice: The datasheet has not been updated this month (April 2024) with March 2024 fuel prices as Experian Catalist have ceased providing fuel price data. We are currently working on sourcing the data from elsewhere and will update the datasheet as soon as possible. Apologies for any inconvenience.
Figures are supplied by Experian Catalist
On 23 March 2022 the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer announced a reduction of 5p per litre on duty for petrol and diesel. This was retained for another year in the Spring Statement of 15 March 2023.
(Note LRP is now a very niche product available at very few forecourts so we stopped reporting the prices from January 2020.)
For earlier UK Road fuel prices see our datasheet:
Prices: UK petrol prices (1902-2019) ; diesel prices (1989-2019) and LPG (2001-2019) (DSI04)
