委内瑞拉油价世界最低0.8元/升

In Norway, where the price of unleaded is the most expensive 164p a litre (April 2017) the average person spends 7.4 percent of their wage to fill up their tank.

There is no doubt that Venezuelans have it good when it comes to petrol prices and how much they spend on filling up their cars, but it’s oil-rich nations in the Middle East that benefit from not only low petrol costs, but high wages as well.

Topping the list is Qatar, where the average person spends 0.4 percent of their wage on unleaded petrol. Saudi Arabia is not far behind with 0.98 percent, while Kuwait (1.2 percent) and Bahrain (1.81 percent) also beat Venezuela.

Qatar pays some of the highest wages in the world. The country, which will host the football World Cup in 2022, has a population of roughly 1.7million.

According to Forbes Magazine, it is the richest nation in the world. The research has found the average take home pay after tax is a mammoth £3,664.92 monthly, while the average petrol price is 12p a litre.

If you compare that to Britain in our April 2017 petrol survey, the average litre of petrol was 142p and average monthly salary after tax £1,660.52. This meant 10.3 percent of wages is spent on filling up the tank.

It’s not all plain sailing for countries with cheap petrol however. Turkmenistan has an average petrol price of 17p, putting it seventh of our list of cheap petrol.

However, this equates to a monthly bill of £20.53 to fill up a motor – and with the average monthly wage before income sitting at £115.42, it means 17.79 percent of wages are spent on petrol.
