Motorists face another kick in the hip pocket with all the major petrol companies lifting their prices 3c.
BP was the first to move yesterday, raising the cost of a litre of 91-octane petrol to 134.9c and 96-octane to 139.9c.
Mobil, Shell and Caltex have all followed suit.
It is believed the price rise, following other rises and the imposition of a higher ACC levy recently, mean that petrol in New Zealand is at a 10-year high.
