From national averages to prices at the pump
National averages provide a good benchmark, but the price you pay at the pump can vary by several cents per litre depending on the station and the brand. On Prix-Carburant.eu you can zoom in by country, region or city to find the cheapest stations near you.
How to compare fuel prices between European countries
To compare fuel prices fairly, we convert all prices into euros per litre and use daily official or institutional sources whenever possible. You can sort the table by fuel type, focus on diesel, petrol or LPG, and then click on a country to view more detailed statistics.
- Diesel is often cheaper in countries with lower excise duties or where diesel is widely used by professional fleets.
- Petrol (SP95) remains more sensitive to international oil prices and to national VAT and excise policy.
- LPG can be very competitive in some countries but remains a niche fuel and is not available uniformly across Europe.
Understanding fuel price differences in Europe
Fuel prices in Europe are driven by three main factors: the price of crude oil on international markets, refining and distribution costs, and above all taxes. Excise duties and VAT can represent more than half of the price you pay at the pump.
Some countries choose to cap or smooth price movements, while others allow prices to follow market conditions more freely. Border areas often show big differences: crossing a border can sometimes save 10 to 20 cents per litre on diesel or petrol.
By tracking this page over time, you can identify structural trends (countries that are always cheap or expensive) and short-term movements linked to tax changes, geopolitical tensions or currency fluctuations.
