El riesgo de gasolina a $5 por galón se intensifica en El Paso

Los precios de la gasolina en El Paso están cerca de alcanzar los $5 por galón, un nivel que se consideraba poco probable a comienzos del año. Actualmente, el precio promedio nacional es de $4.52, con un aumento significativo desde $2.98 al inicio de la guerra con Irán. Expertos advierten que la crisis energética, exacerbada por el cierre del estrecho de Ormuz, podría llevar a un aumento de precios sin que el crudo alcance niveles históricos. La temporada alta de viajes de verano se aproxima, con 39.1 millones de personas planeando viajar por carretera durante el fin de semana del Día de los Caídos, lo que podría aumentar la presión sobre los precios de la gasolina. Si los precios alcanzan los $5, llenar un tanque de 14 galones costaría alrededor de $70.
