Why does fuel cost so much in South Africa?
The pressure on the price of oil on the world market raises the landing cost of fuel in South Africa. The current currency rate is used to convert the landing cost from US dollars to rands. Therefore, any decline in the rand’s value relative to the US dollar leads to an increase in domestic gasoline prices.

Why is fuel so costly?
Because crude oil, which is used to manufacture gasoline and diesel, has climbed in price, so have fuel prices.

The need for energy increased as life resumed its normal course.
