Fluctuations in exchange rates and price increases in the international oil market have been driving fuel prices upward since the beginning of 2026. Recent consecutive hikes in the SCT (Special Consumption Tax) are also directly affecting gasoline, diesel, and LPG prices. For this reason, vehicle owners are wondering about the answer to the question, "How much are gasoline and diesel now?"
According to information received from industry representatives, a price increase of 1 lira and 11 kuruş per liter of gasoline is expected as of Tuesday, January 27. This increase will lead to a recalculation of costs in many sectors, primarily in intercity transportation and logistics.
