Drivers handed £130 if they fill up car at Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury's
Drivers will be handed £130 if they fill up their cars at Tesco, Asda, Morrisons and Sainsbury's garages. Rhydian Jones, a car insurance expert at Confused.com, has urged drivers, road users and motorists to fill up after using the site's fuel calculator.
He advised: "When it comes to topping up your tank, it can be confusing to know which fuel stations are the cheapest around. Our fuel cost calculator gives drivers the option to explore prices in the area. All you need to do is put in a postcode to see where you can get the best deal."
He explained: "Since 2022, drivers have been paying a lower fuel duty than previous years, with a cut of 5p per litre. And although it might not seem a lot, this has helped drivers save about £130 a year. Our research found that nine in 10 drive a fuel vehicle, so this has certainly helped many cut back on costs.

"But there are discussions that this cut might be reversed, and fuel duty could increase by even more than 5p per litre. While this may put a strain on the pockets of many, drivers must remember there are many ways to improve your fuel economy."
