Fuel prices soar: Diesel could reach 2.169 euros per liter next week

Braga TV4 September 2026 at 10:00

Fuel prices in Portugal are expected to experience a very sharp increase next week, between September 7 and 13. The forecast indicates that diesel could reach 2.169 euros per liter.

According to the estimates presented, diesel could increase by 15 cents per liter, while gasoline is expected to rise by 12 cents per liter. These values represent significant increases for consumers.

The final values still depend on the closing of international oil markets. Additionally, a possible change in the ISP (Imposto Sobre Produtos Petrolíferos - Excise Tax on Petroleum Products) discount by the Government is at stake, which could influence the final price charged for fuels.

In an interview with Jornal da Record, Durigan explained that retailers increased their dependence on physical sales, while consumers migrated to the digital environment. Additionally, many companies obtained additional revenue by charging interest on installment plans and cards offered to customers for installment purchases, revenue that has been reduced in the current scenario.
