Regardless of whether you are driving a new or used car in Dubai, you will be affected by these changes, so learn the details below!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting August 1, consumers will pay Dh 1.89 per liter for Super 98, up from Dh 1.86 per liter in July. Super 95 will cost Dh 1.78 per liter, an increase from July\u2019s Dh 1.75 per liter, while E Plus will cost Dh 1.71 per liter, up from Dh 1.68 per liter last month. On the other hand, diesel prices will climb from Dh 1.84 per liter to Dh 1.88 per liter. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what\u2019s driving up the fuel prices this time, you ask? Well, fuel prices in the UAE are dependant on international oil prices and it\u2019s a volatile market indeed given the daily changes in demand and supply. For many countries in the Gulf and beyond, oil exports draw in a huge chunk of revenue so when the prices plunged in late 2014 it was a concern for many. This year too, the ministry had to slash <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/65.1.85.58\/newsroom\/cheaper-car-fuel-uae\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fuel prices in the month of April<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, June, and July.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an attempt to stabilize the market, several OPEC and non-OPEC members decided to cut down supply by 1.8 million barrels a day. There are times when the strategy seems to be working. In fact, the oil producers are hopeful that in the long-run their efforts will pay off. Recently, however, low levels of compliance with the agreement by some members and the increase in US oil supply continue to offset the balance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s likely then that the fluctuations in car fuel prices will continue for some time. So let\u2019s keep our fingers crossed and hope that the market stabilizes soon because that would be in the interest of all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, it might also be a good time to invest in fuel-efficient cars if you are looking to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/carswitch.com\/dubai\/used-cars\/search\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">buy used cars in Dubai, UAE<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
