—
Austria allows price changes only once per day at 12:00 (with downward changes permitted any time), giving consumers a predictable window for cheap refuelling.
Taxes
Mineralölsteuer plus 20% USt. Diesel excise is lower than petrol — diesel remains popular.
When prices dip
Just before the daily 12:00 reset (overnight and morning) is consistently the cheapest moment to refuel.
Tips
- Refuel before noon — prices are legally allowed to rise only once per 24 hours, at 12:00.
- Diskonter chains (Turmöl, Genol, A1) sit 5–10 cents below the major brands.
- Italian and Slovenian border stations may be cheaper for southern Austria.

Ways to cut your per-litre cost
Beyond picking the cheapest pump, three approaches change what you actually pay.
Fuel cards
Regular long-distance and cross-border drivers
Settle at a negotiated network price rather than the pump price, and reclaim VAT on foreign fills in one statement.
Watch out: Network coverage varies by country, and some cards carry a monthly or per-transaction fee that outweighs the discount at low mileage.
Supermarket and unmanned stations
Local driving with a station choice within a few kilometres
Unmanned and hypermarket forecourts consistently price below motorway and branded sites in the same area.
Watch out: A detour costs fuel too — the /detour calculator shows when the trip is worth it.
Part-electric running
Predictable commutes with home or workplace charging
Cost per 100 km on home electricity is typically well below diesel or petrol at current European pump prices.
Watch out: Public rapid charging can cost as much as fuel; the saving depends on where you charge, not on the car alone.
