Current national averages, cheapest stations and an editorial guide to refuelling in Francia.
Euro 95
€2.033
Diesel
€2.230
LPG

France publishes nationwide fuel prices through prix-carburants.gouv.fr. Hypermarket fuel stations (Leclerc, Carrefour, Intermarché, Auchan) are usually the cheapest option, often 5–15 cents below branded networks.
Taxes
TICPE excise duty plus 20% TVA. Total taxes typically represent 55–60% of the pump price for Euro 95 and SP95-E10.
When prices dip
Hypermarket prices are usually adjusted Tuesday or Wednesday and tend to be lowest mid-week.
Tips
- SP95-E10 (10% ethanol) is normally 3–6 cents cheaper than SP95 and accepted by most modern petrol cars.
- Avoid motorway service areas — autoroute prices are €0.15–0.25/L higher than nearby towns.
- Cross-check Belgian and Luxembourg border stations for diesel.

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.
