Petrol prices in New Zealand rise to their highest level since the start of the Iran war, according to live price tracking.
Stuff and NZ Herald both report that fuel costs reach fresh highs based on fuel monitoring apps. Stuff points to live fuel app data showing the increase, while NZ Herald cites Gaspy, which shows 91 unleaded averaging about $3.50.5 and notes the figure is slightly above a prior peak recorded in April. The outlets agree the latest move places current prices at the highest point in the period stretching back to when the Iran war began.
While the articles use slightly different sources for the figures—one referencing live app data broadly and the other using a specific monitor—both describe the same overall trend: higher petrol prices that surpass earlier peaks, including one in April, and mark a new high since the start of the conflict referenced.
