Summary
Petrol is up by KES 28. Diesel by KES 40. At this point, owning a car in Kenya is no longer just about convenience. Now, you have to be strategic. In this special out-of-season episode, we get into the finer details of what these increases mean for everyday drivers and, more importantly, how you can adapt. From driving habits and maintenance to smarter trip planning, we go through practical ways to reduce your fuel spend without completely changing your lifestyle. We’re also joined by Linnet Kitonga from G-Rani, a carpooling platform built to help people share rides and split costs in a more structured and reliable way. With fuel prices where they are, solutions like these are slowly turning from optional to necessary. This is one of those moments where car ownership, transport, and even how we move around the city might have to change.
