If you need to re-fuel, now is the time if you’re a motorist in anywhere but Melbourne. With wholesale prices for petrol dropping rapidly over the last week this has provided some relief which will also delay any new price cycles for Brisbane and Sydney.

Now is the time to re-fuel if you’re a motorist in anywhere but Melbourne – unfortunately any discounting is still around 3 weeks away. Notable drops in wholesale prices for both fuel and diesel will delay any new price cycles for Brisbane and Sydney.

If you’re a Brisbane, Sydney or Perth motorist, now is the ideal time to re-fuel before prices jump back up again within the coming week. Fuel prices are sitting at the 239.9cpl mark in Adelaide and Melbourne at the moment, with no reprieve in sight for another 1 to 3 weeks.

Trends are showing that prices are about to jump in Adelaide and Perth, so motorists should take advantage of the discount phase in their current fuel price cycles.

Perth motorists, fill up now or expect to see fuel prices in the mid to high 220’s – the peak of the current price cycle is imminent – as it is in Adelaide. Brisbane and Sydney drivers will need to wait for at least a couple of weeks before the discounting phase of the cycle commences, while Melbourne motorists should see some discounting this time next week.

Motorists in the remaining capitals should try and hold off for one more week, when fuel prices are expected to drop even further.

It is certainly a very difficult task to predict fuel price cycles at the moment. Fill up ASAP if you’re in Perth as prices are expected to jump into the high 220’s imminently. Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney are 2 weeks away from any sign of a price drop, and Adelaide motorists will most likely see a decrease in their current fuel price cycle early next week.
