Why the cheapest country wins

Fuel prices are mostly tax. Excise duty and VAT differ enough across Europe that the same barrel of oil becomes a very different price at the pump. The ranking above uses the official weekly averages so every country is measured the same way in the same week; live station prices, where Euro Litre has them, sit on top of that backbone on the country pages.

Frequently asked questions

Which country has the cheapest diesel in Europe?

Malta at EUR 1.210 per litre in the bulletin dated 2 Nov 2026.

Are these station prices or averages?

Averages. Every figure in the ranking is a national weekly average including taxes from the EU Weekly Oil Bulletin. Station-level prices live on the France and Spain live pages.

How often does this ranking change?

Weekly, when the European Commission publishes a new bulletin. The bulletin date is shown with every figure.

Why is my country not cheapest at stations too?

A national average hides regional spread. A cheap station near a border can beat the average of the cheaper country, which is why the border pages and live station lists exist.

Do prices include taxes?

Yes. The bulletin reports pump prices including excise duty and VAT, the price a driver actually pays.
