Basin residents push for IX despite cost increase fuel.

The obsession with using a car, apparently in the absence of other effective solutions, costs a lot of money. Greeks more expensive than all other Europeans, because, according to a study published in confused.comannually spend 13% of their salary on fuel.

The cost of fuel is considered “normal” in Greece when unleaded petrol does not exceed 2 euros per liter, and our country ranks third in Europe in terms of price per liter of fuel (the price calculated in this study is 2.40 euros).

The most expensive fuel is Finland (2.53 euros per liter), and the second most expensive is the Netherlands (2.48 euros per liter).

However, apart from the cost per litre, it is the ratio between wages and fuel costs that makes refueling a car extremely expensive for the average household in Greece.

Characteristically, according to the same study, the annual cost of fuel in Greece reaches 1,153 euros, while in the UK the corresponding cost is much higher, reaching 1,761 euros, in Sweden 1,898 euros per year, in Finland 1,738 and in Denmark 2139 euros per year.

But the ratio in relation to the annual salary is clearly lower, apparently due to the level of the average salary in these countries, which is significantly increased.

But despite high annual fuel costs in Denmark, Danish citizens spend 6.97% of their income, half as much as in Greece, to fill their car tank, in Sweden 7.68% of their income and in Finland 6.82 %.

The cheapest country in terms of fuel is Spain, as citizens spend 868 euros a year to fill up their car, which is 5.41% of their salary.

Drivers in Luxembourg pay the least of all Europeans. They spend 1,423 euros per year on fuel, which is 3.76% of their income, and a liter of fuel costs only 1.90 euros.
