Fluffs questioned:
Can anyone clarify why is diesel more pricey than habitual gas?
I also judge it takes less to manufacture or refine but it cost more, why?
Would it not help the farmers, car drivers and the state if Diesel cost or Tax was less.
Diesel cars are also shown to be more fuel efficient, why is it not encouraged by sinking the tax or cost of them.
Import and Regime Taxes, licensing, Stamp duty, conveying fess, tyres, parts and additional cost of a vehicle and running cost must be based on fuel efficiency.

I agree with you 100 percent and it is cheaper to make out of crude oil than gasoline — in effect, it is less refined — and so, theoretically, it must be cheaper at the pump.
But………..
Worldwide demand seems to be the clincher. For innumerable reasons, the overseas hunger for diesel fuel is on the rise more vigorously than for gasoline.
in view of the fact that diesel is the “cash cow”. They make more off of it and it’s a lot harder for the car drivers or farmers to stop using the fuel than it is for the habitual each day Joe. So users of Unleaded are more inborn and more prone to batter or stop driving as prices boost. Truckers can’t do anything about it but payment more for tender their lots and continue to pay the privileged prices. .
