Australia's Cheapest Fuel Prices - Sunday 19 April 2026

Today, 19 April 2026, the Australian fuel market continues to exhibit significant price dispersion across different regions. National trends suggest that while global crude oil pressures remain present, local competition among independent retailers is driving down costs in specific metropolitan pockets. Consumers are encouraged to analyse local price cycles, particularly in major capital cities where the difference between the peak and the trough of the cycle can exceed 30 cents per litre.

State-by-state analysis reveals that motorists in New South Wales and Queensland are currently finding the most competitive rates for E10, thanks to high volume turnover and a high density of independent service stations. In contrast, the market in Western Australia remains heavily influenced by the Perth price cycle, making timing essential for fueling. The following tables provide a detailed breakdown of the most affordable options found in each state and territory today.

On a national level, the competition to offer the lowest price per litre is fierce. Today’s data highlights that the cheapest fueling options are often located in outer suburban industrial areas or at independent stations positioned near major transport routes. While premium fuels like U95 and U98 carry a significant price gap, the spread for E10 and Diesel remains narrower. Refer to the table below to identify the single cheapest station across the country for each specific fuel type.

Money-Saving Tips

  • Monitor the Cycle: In cities like Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, wait for the bottom of the price cycle to fill up your tank completely.
  • Choose E10 Wisely: If your vehicle is compatible, E10 often provides the best value for money, provided the price gap between it and Unleaded 91 is at least 2 to 3 cents.
  • Avoid Freeway Service Centres: Petrol stations located directly on major motorways and freeways typically charge a premium. Opting for a station a few kilometres off the main road can lead to significant savings.
  • Optimise Your Route: Use real-time data to find the cheapest station along your planned journey rather than driving specifically to a distant location.
