Motorists in Perth and Mandurah are advised to fill up now if they need to, with petrol prices set to rise tomorrow. After today motorists will likely have to wait a week before petrol prices are again at the bottom of the price cycle.
FuelWatch reports that, from 6am tomorrow (Wednesday 12 February 2025), the average price of Perth’s regular unleaded petrol (ULP) will increase by over 29 cents per litre (cpl) to 195.4 cpl with Reddy Express/Coles Express, EG Ampol, 7-Eleven and BP hiking up to 209.9 cpl; Ampol and Caltex up to 207.9 cpl; Vibe up to 207.7 cpl; and United up to 205.9 cpl.
Despite the average hike tomorrow, there are still 30 individual sites offering ULP below 166 cpl, so consumers should check the FuelWatch website to find the lowest price near them. Buying ULP from the cheapest site rather than the most expensive, a difference of 50 cpl, means motorists can potentially save $30 on a 60 litre tank.
Tuesday’s cheapest ULP is available for:
- 161.9 cpl at Shell Reddy Express Forrestfield in the East;
- 159.9 cpl at OTR Maddington, Shell Coles Express Myaree, Shell Coles Express Waikiki, Shell Coles Express Westfield and Shell Reddy Express Southern River in the South; and
- 159.9 cpl at Ampol Foodary Carine, Shell Reddy Express Clarkson, Shell Reddy Express Duncraig, Shell Reddy Express Ellenbrook, Shell Reddy Express Kingsley, Shell Reddy Express Malaga, Shell Reddy Express Mount Lawley and Shell Reddy Express Warwick in the North.
Wednesday’s cheapest ULP will be available for:
- 163.9 cpl at Atlas Fuel Stratton in the East;
- 161.3 cpl at Burk Camillo in the South; and
- 159.8 cpl at Petro Fuels Westminster in the North.
