According to the Automobile Association - based on unaudited fuel data from the Central Energy Fund - all grades of fuel will cost more from Wednesday.
A hike in the fuel price will bring an end to a 3-month run of relief at the pumps for motorists.
93 and 95 petrol are expected to climb by more than 60 cents a litre, while Diesel could jump by 63 cents a litre
And Illuminating paraffin is expected to be 47cents a litre more expensive.
The AA says the movement in international oil prices is the main driver behind the increase, while the weaker rand to US dollar also hasn’t been a great help
