Fuel prices in Portugal will undergo changes next week, following opposite directions. According to available information, one of the fuels will have a significant price drop, while another will register an increase.

The situation represents a mix of good and bad news for drivers. Motorists will face different scenarios depending on the type of fuel they use in their vehicles.

This contradictory variation in prices occurs at a time when many drivers seek to anticipate fuel expenses. The difference in behavior between the various types of fuels shows that the market is adjusting in a differentiated way.
