Japan's Gasoline Price, August 2008

Though the number of vehicles on the road in car-happy Nagoya seems the same as previously, government statistics show gasoline sales shrunk by 8.9% in June compared to the figure for June 2007.

Many gas stations are now becoming self-service to reduce costs and large consumers such as delivery companies are converting from small vans to powered bicycles to deliver documents and parcels in inner city areas.
