The price of petrol, diesel, and paraffin is officially going up come September. The Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources (DMPR) has officially confirmed a fuel price increase across the board for South African motorists, with diesel being hit the hardest after a particularly tough month. The changes will kick in on the morning of Wednesday, 2 September. That leaves you plenty of time to take advantage of the current prices.
