What changed this week?

RON95 and RON97 fell by 5 sen per litre. Unsubsidised RON95 dropped from RM4.57 to RM4.52 per litre, while RON97 fell from RM5.05 to RM5.00 per litre.

Diesel recorded the bigger drop. Unsubsidised B10/B15 diesel fell by 15 sen from RM5.42 to RM5.27 per litre, while Euro 5 B7 diesel is priced at RM5.47 per litre.

Subsidised prices remain separate from unsubsidised market prices. Eligible users continue to pay RM1.99 per litre for BUDI95 RON95 and RM2.10 per litre for BUDI Diesel, subject to eligibility and remaining monthly allocation.


How much can you save?

A 5-sen drop per litre still translates into a small saving. For example, filling up with 40 litres of unsubsidised RON95 now costs RM180.80 instead of RM182.80 last week which is  a RM2.00 saving per fill-up.

Diesel users see a larger difference for the same amount. A 40-litre fill-up of unsubsidised diesel now costs RM210.80, compared with RM216.80 previously, saving RM6.00.

The calculation is different for eligible BUDI95 users. At RM1.99 per litre, 40 litres of RON95 costs RM79.60, subject to the applicable monthly allocation.

BUDI95 and BUDI Diesel: what drivers need to know

The basic monthly subsidy allocation returned to 300 litres from 1 September 2026. The Ministry of Finance stated that the adjustment applies to eligible BUDI95 and BUDI Diesel recipients.

Eligible private pickup and jeep owners using diesel may receive an additional 100 litres. This brings their potential allocation to up to 400 litres per month, subject to approval for the additional allocation.

Subsidised prices remain unchanged this week. BUDI95 stays at RM1.99 per litre, while BUDI Diesel remains RM2.10 per litre even as unsubsidised prices change according to the weekly pricing mechanism.

Expert tip: If you refuel regularly, record how many litres you buy each time. For a 40-litre fill-up, this week’s RON95 reduction saves RM2.00 compared with last week, while B10/B15 diesel saves RM6.00.

Common mistake: Do not assume RM4.52 per litre is what every Malaysian driver pays for RON95. RM4.52 is the unsubsidised RON95 price, while eligible BUDI95 users pay RM1.99 per litre.


Conclusion

Malaysia’s fuel prices for 1-7 October 2026 have fallen to RM4.52 per litre for unsubsidised RON95, RM5.00 for RON97 and RM5.27 for B10/B15 diesel. For eligible users, subsidised prices remain RM1.99 for RON95 and RM2.10 for diesel.
