The price of petrol saw its biggest daily jump in 17 years on Tuesday with a rise of more than 2p a litre.
The RAC motoring group said the average cost of filling a typical family car with petrol was now £99.40 and could exceed £100 as soon as Thursday.
Soaring fuel prices have been driven by the war in Ukraine and moves to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian oil.
With food and energy bills also surging, many households are under pressure.
The average price of petrol rose to 180.73p per litre on Tuesday, the RAC said.
Meanwhile, the average price of diesel rose by almost 1.5p to another record high of 186.57p per litre, making the cost of filling a 55-litre family car £102.61.
