During Holy Week, the average price of petrol and diesel is expected to be 22.2% and 38.4%, respectively, more expensive than Easter last year, and 22.2% and 33.9% more expensive than in 2019. Filling a 55-litre tank with petrol now costs around 88.71 euros, about 16.11 euros more than the same time last year; in the case of diesel, refuelling will set you back 90.58 euros, an increase of around 25.13 euros.
