Official petrol and diesel prices for July 2023: here’s how much more you’ll pay per tank

Petrol and diesel prices are set to rise from Wednesday, 02 August, the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) has announced.
Both grades of petrol will increase by 37 cents per litre, while diesel will rise by between 71 cents (50ppm) and 72 cents (500ppm).
This means motorists will now pay R22.11 for a litre of 95 Unleaded petrol at the coast and R22.83 in the inland regions, where the slightly cheaper 93 Unleaded will now retail for R22.43.
50ppm diesel will now carry a wholesale price of R19.82 at the coast and R20.53 inland, keeping in mind that retail prices - which vary between outlets - will be somewhat more than that.
How much more per tank?
Putting 32 litres of petrol into a small hatchback like a Suzuki Swift or Toyota Starlet will cost you an extra R11.84. Refuelling a larger SUV like a BMW X5 with 70 litres will carry a R25.90 penalty.
It’ll be a bigger chunk of change for those with diesel-powered bakkies and related SUVs. For instance, putting 70 litres of 50ppm diesel into the 80 litre tank of a Toyota Hilux or Fortuner will set you back an additional R49.70.
