The energy regulator (ERSE) has set the weekly efficient price for fuels at 2.167 euros per litre for simple 95 gasoline and 2.211 euros for simple diesel, representing a weekly increase of 2.2% for gasoline and 0.08% for diesel. This reference price, valid for the week of October 12 to 18, 2026, accounts for international market quotes, logistics, and taxes, though final pump prices remain set by individual operators.
