Premium petrol expected to hit $2 a litre: NRMA

BRISBANE has recorded its highest daily average for regular unleaded petrol at $1.67 /litre.

Records tumbled across the city as RACQ revealed Brisbane motorists were being slugged more at the bowser than ever before.

RACQ spokeswoman Lucinda Ross said while global factors played a role, Brisbane motorists were still being ripped off more than drivers in other major capital cities.

“Global oil prices and the low Aussie dollar are driving the high prices, but fuel companies in Brisbane are still enjoying the highest indicative retail margins across the large capitals and it’s just not fair,” Ms Ross said.
