Interest in knowing how much gasoline costs in Africa. In this article I have listed prices for Petrol in Diesel in some African countries from the cheapest to the most expensive.
About fuel prices in Africa
- The cheapest fuel is in Libya (US$0.03 per liter) due to heavy government subsidies.
- The most expensive fuel is in Zimbabwe (US$1.49 per liter on average) due to currency fluctuations and import dependence.
- Northern African countries generally have lower prices due to subsidies, while Southern African countries have higher prices due to market-based pricing.
