The choice of route by car to Croatia this season will not significantly affect the price of gasoline or diesel. The journey from Bratislava and back there will be approximately EUR 170 through Austria, through Hungary around 180 euros including fuel, short -term motorway signs or tolls. The difference is therefore negligible in practice. You can save more on properly timed refueling, earlier holiday booking or accommodation. Matej Bajzík approached Wednesday’s financial markets analyst on Wednesday.
“Given the soothing geopolitical situation in the world, we expect oil prices at stable levels. At the same time, the weak dollar dollar purchase of oil even more cheaper. During the summer holiday season, we expect fuel prices to remain steadily at the current levels and range from 1 to 5 units. explained Bajzík. Thus, people can adapt the choice of route to their own preferences, not based on the price of fuel.
At the same time, fuel prices differ significantly between countries, and therefore, according to an expert, properly timed refueling can save tens of euros. In Slovakia, diesel for € 1.428 per liter (L) and petrol for 1.532 euros/l are currently refueled. This means that with an average consumption of seven liters per 100 kilometers and a 700-kilometer journey to Croatia, the price will be the price For a one -way journey to Croatia from Slovakia at diesel to cost 69.72 euros and gasoline 75.06 euros. He quantified Bajzík.
The idea of refuement in Austria is still the least advantageous idea, because the price for diesel is 1.556 euros/la for gasoline 1.582 euros/l. It cannot be clearly said in which country from five Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia and Austria is worth refueling, because it depends on the fuel. Somewhere is cheaper gasoline and somewhere diesel, the clear favorite is not, underlined the analyst.
“More meaningful is to focus on other aspects that may have a significant impact on the budget than for example Early reservation of accommodation, choosing a less busy date outside of the high season or watching fuel prices in individual countries to refuel where it is the most advantageous. Such an approach can save you tens to hundreds of euros, definitely more than the choice of route itself, ”concluded Bajzík.
