In its most recent fuel price review released on Saturday, June 14, EPRA stated that the prices of Super Petrol will go up, but Diesel and Kerosene in Nairobi will decrease. This is a change from Ksh174.63, Ksh164.86, and Ksh148.99, respectively, from the previous month.

Fuel watch: New fuel prices as announced by EPRA on June 14, 2025
"In accordance with Section 101(y) of the Petroleum Act 2019 and Legal Notice No.192 of 2022, we have calculated the maximum wholesale and retail prices of petroleum products which will be in force from 15th June 2025 to 14th July 2025.
"In the period under review, the maximum allowed petroleum pump prices for Super Petrol increase by KShs 2.69 per litre while Diesel and Kerosene decrease by KShs 1.95 and KShs 2.06 per litre respectively."
According to EPRA, the prices are inclusive of the 16% Value Added Tax (VAT) in line with the provisions of the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024 and the revised rates for excise duty adjusted for inflation as per Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.
"The average landed cost of imported Super Petrol increased by 0.35% from US$588.16 per cubic metre in April 2025 to US$590.24 per cubic metre in May 2025; Diesel decreased by 2.42% from US$594.60 per cubic metre to US$580.23 per cubic metre while Kerosene decreased by 5.14% from US$599.84 per cubic metre to US$569.00 per cubic metre over the same period," added EPRA.
Across the country, in Mombasa, fuel prices have been set at Ksh174.01 per litre for super petrol, Ksh159.62 for diesel, and Ksh143.64 for kerosene.
In Kisumu, motorists will pay Ksh177.28 per litre for super petrol, Ksh163.23 for diesel, and Ksh147.30 for kerosene. Over in Nakuru, super petrol will go for Ksh176.47, with diesel and kerosene priced at Ksh162.41 and Ksh146.47 per litre, respectively.
In Eldoret, prices mirror those in Kisumu, with super petrol at Ksh177.28, diesel at Ksh163.24, and kerosene at Ksh147.30 per litre.
EPRA noted that the pricing of petroleum products is influenced by international market trends, as Kenya relies entirely on imported, refined fuel due to the absence of local production or refining facilities.
The newly announced prices are likely to draw mixed reactions, given that Kenyan motorists use both super petrol and diesel-powered vehicles. Attention, however, now turns to the coming month, with many Kenyans closely watching global oil prices and anticipating the next pricing review by EPRA.
Usually, the change in fuel prices is a ripple effect, with any increase in fuel prices triggering possible increases in the cost of matatu fares, food, transportation and power generation operational costs, which include the transportation and logistics sectors, which are vital for the distribution of goods across the country.
