Petrol prices in Aalen increase: Consequences of the Israel-Iran conflict noticeably!

Aalen, Deutschland - in Aalen is currently about fuel prices. As a precaution, drivers in the city are refueling because the conflict between Israel and Iran promises uncomfortable developments. According to the Schwäbische Post warn expert escalating conflict in the Middle East could be triggered. The petrol stations remained calm on Monday afternoon, and long snakes were not spotted, but drivers are sensitized to the news about rising costs.

The price fluctuations are now an everyday companion of German drivers. There have been some examples over the weekend: On Sunday evening, the liter cost a great plus 1.60 euros, on Monday morning the price jumped to 1.72 euros, only to drop again at noon at 1.65 euros. The petrol station operators in Aalen expect the fuel prices to level off at a higher level. According to adac this is certainly not surprising, because the crude oil prices are also increasing.

rising oil prices and their effects

The military conflict between Israel and Iran, which escalated on June 13, has a massive influence on the global markets. The price of brent oil is currently over $ 74 after it had previously dropped to $ 69. As a result, the fuel prices in Germany rose: Super E10 cost an average of 1.698 euros on June 15, which corresponds to an increase of 4 cents. There was also an increase of 4.4 cents for the diesel, so the price is now at 1.582 euros. Drivers who always head for the petrol station to avoid the impending fuel price increases are particularly affected. The ADAC predicts that mineral oil companies will pass on the higher oil price to drivers, such as Auto Bild reported.

Particularly explosive: Diesel prices at certain petrol stations have risen by a total of 16 cents to 1.65 euros per liter. If you wanted to load your car with 60 liters of diesel, you had to pay 9.60 euros more than at the beginning of the week. The same applies to gasoline - the price for Super E10 has risen by 14 cents to 1.76 euros. It is said that these developments could represent the greatest price increase since the Corona crisis in 2020.
