“We continue to have good news, regular gasoline is expected to go from ȼ679 to ȼ657 per liter and diesel from ȼ632 to ȼ607,” said Juan Manuel Quesada, president of Recope, in a statement.

The change also affects other types of fuels such as propane used in many kitchens (home and commercial) across the country and aviation fuels, among others.
