LONDON, Oct 26 (Reuters) Global gasoline prices rose in October, defying a seasonal fall at the end of summer when driving demand wanes, as crude prices hit soar to record highs, a Reuters survey on Friday showed.
Drivers are set to spend even more to fill their cars towards the end of this year as the most recent hikes in crude have yet to be passed on to retail gasoline prices, and U.S. and European fuel supply levels have been running low.
The costliest petrol is in Norway, Europe's top oil producer, while Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, was near the bottom in the 35-nation survey.
