The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission will investigate allegations that the cost of petrol remains much higher in regional and rural areas than in metropolitan regions. The average price of unleaded petrol is currently around $A1.197 per litre in the five main capital cities. However, motorists in regional cities and towns are paying between $A0.18 and $A0.44 per litre more. This includes Canberra and Hobart
