Fuel
One of the main aspects to take in consideration in the rate is “fuel”. According to Technical Note 511 of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), fuel consumption directly affects operating costs. Therefore, the price of diesel is important because it is the fuel most used in the road freight transportation.
