The ADAC sees the higher oil price as the main reason for the current increase in gasoline prices. According to the traffic club, the fact that diesel is less affected by this is probably due to the impending end of the heating season and overall weaker demand. In spring it is often observed that diesel prices fall in relation to gasoline. The background is the then falling demand for heating oil, which is very similar to diesel.
