The Automobile Association says petrol price drop coming on the first Wednesday of 2015 could be among the largest on record.
The AA says based on the unaudited mid-December fuel price data released by the Central Energy Fund the petrol price is set for a drop of between 105 cents and 107 cents per litre.
The price of diesel is likely to be around 85 cents a litre and illuminating paraffin by 90 cents per litre.
The AA says that the likely month-end figure is difficult to predict precisely, as international petroleum prices continue to decline while the Rand follows its weakening trend against the US dollar.
