Malaysian fuel prices August 2025 week one – RON97 petrol down 4 sen to RM3.17/litre; diesel unchanged

It is Wednesday – therefore, it is once again time for the weekly fuel price update in Malaysia, and the finance ministry has announced the retail prices of fuels for the coming week of July 31 to August 6, 2025.

Here’s a little easing of fuel costs for those who refuel with RON 97 petrol, as the premium grade of petrol drops four sen to RM3.17 per litre for the coming week, down from the RM3.21 per litre rate of last week. RON 95 petrol continues at its present ceiling price of RM2.05 per litre as determined by the Malaysian government in February 2021.

(Last week’s announcement of a lower RON 95 price of RM1.99 per litre is for that to take effect when the targeted subsidy of RON 95 petrol begins, which is planned for September this year when details of the fuel rationalisation plan are announced.)

Meanwhile, retail prices of diesel fuels continue unchanged this week, at RM2.91 per litre for the Euro 5 B10 and B20 blends, while the Euro 5 B7 blend similarly continues to be 20 sen more per litre at RM3.11 per litre. The retail price of diesel fuels in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan continues to be the same at RM2.15 per litre.

These fuel prices will take effect from midnight tonight until Wednesday, August 6, 2025, when the next set of fuel price updates will be announced. This is the 31st edition of the weekly fuel pricing format for this year, and the 342nd in total since the format was introduced at the start of 2019.
