Distributors committed at the beginning of summer 2023 to reduce their gross transport/distribution margins deemed "excessive" "Unfortunately, they increased again from November", notes the CLCV. This margin increased in January to 26 cents per liter of SP95 gasoline and 22.2 cents per Liter of diesel.

In 2022, this margin had fallen to very low levels, distributors having chosen not to pass on the entire rise in crude prices following the Ukrainian crisis. Since the summer, prices at the pump have fallen due to the fall in the price of a barrel.
