Fuel prices: Expensive refueling: Price of E10 just before record high
While millions of Germans travel on vacation or return home, the price of Super E10 is only slightly below its high. This fuels the debate about relief for motorists.
Gasoline prices in Germany are close to their record high due to ongoing tensions in the Middle East. According to the ADAC, E10 gasoline costs an average of 2.165 euros per liter, just a few cents shy of the March 2022 record of 2.203 euros. Diesel prices stand at 2.260 euros per liter, around 20 cents below the April high. The ADAC predicts 2026 could be the most expensive year for fuel so far, surpassing the 2022 record.
The price increase is attributed to the Iran conflict and low water levels on the Rhine, which raise transport costs.
