# Motorists could face higher fuel prices in September, according to mid-month data from the Central Energy Fund. Ninety-three octane petrol’s price is showing an under-recovery of 66-cents per litre, while 95-octane could rise by 77 cents. Diesel users may be hit hardest, with increases of between two-rand-73 and two-rand-90 per litre projected. Experts say the hikes are driven by rising global oil prices and ongoing tensions in the Middle East, despite a relatively stable rand against the US dollar.
