Gasoline sales were up by 4.7% for a total of 623 million liters, including 28 mln liters of premium gasoline, MTI reported.
Diesel sales increased by 7.0% for a total of 967 mln liters, and premium sales reached 70 mln liters, MTI said.
The sales of fuel were boosted by “still favorable” prices, ranging from HUF 320-330 per liter, said MASZ head Otto Grad, according to MTI.
The seven MASZ members draw around three-fourths of gasoline sales and two-thirds of diesel sales in Hungary, and together own around 60% of the 2,000 gas stations in the country, MTI noted.
