Searches for ‘cheap fuel near me’ explode to highest point EVER as prices face a record high 

Analysis of Google search data reveals that online searches for ‘cheap fuel near me’ exploded 1,900% in the UK during March 2022 – the highest level in internet history – as inflation soars to a 30-year high.  

A new finding by car insurance experts CarInsurance.ae reveals that searches for the phrase ‘cheap fuel near me’ exploded to 20 times the average volume within the past month, an unprecedented increase in people searching for affordable fuel in their area, according to Google search data analysis.  

A spokesperson for CarInsurance.ae commented on the findings: 

“Over the past few months, the UK has dealt with eyewatering costs due to soaring costs of energy, food and other household bills. The significant rise in fuel prices only contributes heavily to these stressors, with March 2022 having the largest increase in fuel prices ever recorded in a single month, according to the RAC. 

As fuel prices soar to their highest point on record in the UK, these findings offer a shocking insight into the harsh realities of the cost-of-living crisis. With further increases in day-to-day costs, many households will struggle to keep their cars running, as reflected by the huge explosion of people searching for affordable fuel in their area – the highest on record.”
