Drivers in Serbia, brace yourselves for another hit to your wallets! Starting from 3 PM on July 11th, the price of a liter of Euro diesel has jumped by 2 dinars, while the price of Euro Premium BMB gasoline remains unchanged. Yes, you read that right — diesel prices are climbing, but gasoline is standing still like nothing’s happening. Why? Blame the rising crude oil prices on global markets — Brent crude is now around 68 dollars per barrel, up from previous levels.
These new fuel prices will be in effect until next Friday, July 18th, meaning drivers will have to get used to more expensive diesel for at least a week. Meanwhile, President Aleksandar Vučić promises to continue building highways and express roads, which is great news for infrastructure but not so much for drivers’ pockets who will be paying more at the pump.
To make matters worse, the Belgrade-Niš highway is plagued daily by multi-kilometer traffic jams and incidents that completely paralyze traffic. Just imagine how much fuel is wasted sitting in those lines, and how much money is spent filling up while you’re stuck!
While Serbian drivers struggle with rising fuel prices, the world is busy with other issues — from US tariffs on imports from Brazil to China’s infrastructure projects in South America. But for us, the headline is clear: diesel is getting more expensive, gasoline is holding steady, and that’s probably the least we can expect right now.
So, dear drivers, get ready for pricier commutes, longer waits in traffic, and growing expenses. Got a clever hack to survive these fuel prices? Drop it in the comments — maybe your tip will save someone’s budget!
Meanwhile, hang tight, fill up while you can, and remember — every extra dinar at the pump is a direct hit to your wallet. We’ll keep tracking the situation and bringing you the latest on fuel prices and traffic in Serbia.
