Samara residents reveal gas price for bus switch

We are closely monitoring the situation with gasoline prices and availability in the Samara region and even running an online tracker on the topic. Assuming that you, dear readers, are the most reliable source of information, we asked several «fuel» questions on social media.

We asked subscribers whether they see a gasoline crisis or if the problems have not affected them, whether locals stocked up on fuel or did not manage to. And we even found out at what gasoline price Samara residents are ready to switch to buses!

We arranged the answers into a convenient infographic — let«s take a look quickly.

So, 43% of subscribers noticed that the situation with gasoline is tense. Another 57% of readers do not feel any crisis. How unexpected!

Most readers did not stock up on fuel for a rainy day. Of course, who knew.

Car owners are not ready to switch to the bus: 74% of respondents answered «no». Only 26% of Samara residents still agree to use public transport in the era of the gasoline crisis.

90% of readers use gasoline for its intended purpose: to fuel a car. However, 17% of Samara residents would like to pour fuel into a chainsaw, generator, and other devices. And only 2% of subscribers chose the option «For reserve».

39% of subscribers will never give up their car, no matter how much gasoline costs. Another 19% of car owners will park their «swallows» in the garage if prices exceed 100 rubles per liter ($1) (in principle, soon, haha). 15% of readers will endure and give up the car only at a price above 150 rubles per liter ($2). Another 17% are ready to withstand that, but if the price tag exceeds 200 rubles per liter ($2), that is already too much for them.

10% of subscribers have already given up personal transport and switched to public transport or walk.
