0


For petrol owners, Asda is the most affordable destination with rates averaging out at just 131.5p per litre. 

Morrisons was next with the supermarket charging customers around 132.2p per litre around their UK sites.

Sainsbury’s was a tad more expensive, coming in at 132.3p per litre with Tesco rounding out the top four.

The analysis found that Tesco was charging 133p per litre, higher than the average across all four brands of 132.5p per litre. 

Asda was again found to be the best place for diesel owners with prices averaging out at 136.5p per litre. 

Asda’s lowest diesel price in the UK was just 128.7p per litre but their highest store came up at a staggering 143.7 pence. 

Morrisons and Sainsbury’s were next with both supermarkets charging motorists an average of 137.3p per litre. 

Tesco rounded out the major four supermarkets with analysis putting the cost of diesel at 137.7p per litre. 

The latest research comes just weeks after the RAC suggested that fuel prices remain at a three-year low. 

Simon Williams head of roads policy at the RAC previously said: “Despite the price of oil briefly jumping up to around $80 a barrel in the early part of October due to increased tensions in the Middle East, prices at the pumps have fortunately remained stable at a three-year low.

“This is yet more good news for drivers following the Chancellor’s extension of the 5p duty cut at her first Budget last week. 

“But it’s also worth remembering that even now 55% of the total price of a litre of fuel is tax in the form of fuel duty, and the VAT that is charged on top.”
