Motorists must expect another petrol hike next week.

The Energy Department has confirmed that the price of all grades of petrol will rise by 26-cents a litre next week.

Diesel will cost between 30- and 32-cents more, the price of illuminating paraffin will go up by up to 42-cents and LP gas’ price will go up by 41-cent.

This hike is reported to be the second highest hike in row.

This hike next week has been caused by the weakened Rand against the dollar in the past month.
