Gas Prices Surge Past $1.70 Per Liter | Leicester News

Fuel prices are skyrocketing to levels not seen since the start of the Iran war, with unleaded gas hitting nearly $1.70 per liter and a full tank costing around $94. Leicestershire’s prices vary wildly — from $1.67 at a Texaco to $1.82 at a Shell — making it a true postcode lottery. Nationally, Leicester sits in the middle, while places like Maidstone pay more than $1.75, and Scotland’s Borders offer relief at just over $1.49. Diesel drivers face even steeper hikes, averaging over $1.90 per liter, with some stations charging as much as $2.15. Experts warn this isn’t slowing down — petrol jumped nearly $5 this month alone, and diesel is even higher. Buckle up, because drivers are in for more pain at the pump.
