Research and analysis highlights
As the proportion of diesel cars on Slovenia' s roads has been rising, diesel
consumption has increased substantially, from 1,216 million litres in 2007 to
1,677 million litres in 2008, a growth rate of 38.0%. Over the same period
petrol consumption grew by 5.1%. The growth rates of the diesel and petrol car
parcs were 39% and 9% respectively.
Petrol Slovenia branded service stations account for 71% of total outlets in
Slovenia, having increased by 10% since 2004. This is by far the biggest rise
out of all other fuel retailers in the country. However, its market volume
share has been steadily declining by an annual average of 1.4% since 2004 due
to smaller fuel retailers gaining ground.
There are 132 stations with a car wash. The OMV car wash sites operate under
the OMV Top Wash brand. The OMV Top Wash automatic washes offer five different
programmes. The premium programme is Superb Care + Topwax, which finishes with
a coat of OMV' s Topwax premium waxing treatment. Vacuum cleaners are available
for the interior of the car.
