Dusseldorf Since the start of the Ukraine war a good two weeks ago, fuel prices have risen dramatically. According to ADAC, petrol cost an average of 2.20 euros per liter nationwide last Sunday, and diesel even cost 2.30 euros. This means that prices have risen by around ten and 15 cents respectively within five days. According to ADAC, since the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, Super E10 has become more expensive by a good 25 percent, and diesel has even increased by around 38 percent.
