For many car owners, petrol price is a matter of great concern as it significantly impacts people's daily commutes. Currently, the price of RON97 petrol in Malaysia is RM 3.25 per litre, where does this price stand globally? The prices of petrol in countries worldwide are influenced by multiple factors, including the price of crude oil, exchange rates, tax policies, and subsidy policies. By comparing the price of petrol with other countries and regions, we may get a sense of the relative level of petrol price in Malaysia.
There are differences in petrol prices among European countries. This is mainly due to different taxation policies in each country, which results in varying proportions of fuel tax in the price of petrol. According to the latest news, the price of petrol in Germany is 1.79€/L, and the latest petrol price in Paris is 1.91€/L, which is equivalent to around RM 8.3-9 in the Malaysian market. As can be seen, Europe, being a gathering place for developed countries, has a relatively high overall level of petrol prices.
In Asia, the price of RON97 petrol in China is around RMB 8, which is equivalent to about RM 4.8 in the Malaysian market, a relatively low level. Korea and Japan, as developed countries, have petrol prices around RM 6 per litre, which is considered a fairly reasonable price range.
The petrol price in Middle Eastern countries is about RM 2 per litre, a stark contrast to the global petrol price, almost the lowest in the world. The Middle East region is rich in oil resources, which is one of the main reasons for its relatively low petrol prices. Due to the ideal location and high concentration of oil fields, the Middle East has the world's lowest oil production costs. The region is long-term water-scarce, therefore the price of oil is even lower than the price of water.
In the United States, gasoline is not priced per liter, but is sold in gallons, and prices vary from city to city. Specifically, the price of a gallon of gasoline is about 2.6 US dollars, which is equivalent to about RM 5 per liter in Malaysian prices, which is relatively low.
The oil prices in Malaysia are relatively low in the world, thanks mainly to Malaysia being one of the oil-producing countries, which provides a relatively stable oil supply, saving a lot of production and transportation costs, and thus effectively controlling car prices.Furthermore, the Malaysian government reduces oil prices through subsidy policies, allowing consumers to purchase fuel at relatively low prices. Low oil prices are a policy that benefits the public.
In conclusion, the price of a liter of Malaysian RON97 oil at RM 3.25 is relatively low in the world. For average car consumers, this can bring very low car use costs. Of course, the price of gasoline will affect people's living standards and whether it is expensive or cheap has to be combined with local consumption levels, resident incomes, and purchasing power. In addition, due to numerous factors affecting oil prices, its specific level may fluctuate over time and changes in the international situation.
