Hungary to give targeted subsidy to owners of diesel-powered cars

- Hungary's government will give a targeted subsidy to compensate households using diesel-powered cars as fuel prices have risen but will not introduce a fuel price cap as that could trigger supply shortages, Prime Minister Peter Magyar said on Friday.

Magyar said in a Facebook post that there was an unprecedented diesel shortage in Europe.

"By December, owners of diesel-powered vehicles with a maximum of 150 horsepower will receive a total of 20,000 forints ($63.96) in compensation," he said, adding that farmers will also receive help in the form of excise tax refunds.


($1 = 312.7000 forints)
