Within a few years, fuel prices will end up above SEK 35/l. This, in turn, causes asking prices to plummet. This analysis is done by our company car expert and several others.
Right now, petrol and diesel are unusually cheap, while second-hand values ​​for popular exhaust cars are extremely high. For electric cars, it is the other way around – starting prices have fallen due to low demand.
In the near future the conditions will be reversed. The explanation is that the EU will change its trading of emissions rights in 2027 as part of the “Fit for 55” transition. The new emissions rights are called ETS 2 and will have a common pricing across the EU.
In practice, it becomes more expensive to contribute to carbon dioxide emissions. To finance the more expensive emission rights, the price of fuel must be raised radically. Exactly how much, there are very different opinions about. The German think tank Agora Energiewende’s analysis shows an increase of SEK 4.50 per liter.
SEK 35–40 per liter according to the industry
Our company car expert Ronny Svensson at Ynnor predicts a petrol price of SEK 35 per liter after the next parliamentary election. He says so in a video with our reporter Alrik Söderlind.
Others predict an even higher price per liter for petrol and diesel.
– We have had meetings with representatives in the fuel industry who believe that the price can increase to upwards of SEK 40 per litre, says Peder Blohm Bokenhielm, spokesperson for the Fuel Rebellion to Carup.
Ronny Svensson at Ynnor believes that the higher fuel prices will inevitably lead to drastically reduced second-hand values ​​for petrol and diesel cars. Hear his entire reasoning in the video.
