# South African motorists are facing more huge fuel-price increases on Wednesday, with petrol and diesel prices rising sharply. Petrol prices will increase by around one-rand-34-cents-per-litre, while diesel prices will increase by between two-rand-93- and three-rand-14-cents-per-litre. The increases are being driven by higher international oil prices and a weaker rand. The latest hikes will add further pressure to household budgets and transport costs.
