Australia's Cheapest Fuel Prices - Sunday 29 March 2026

As of March 29, 2026, the national fuel market continues to exhibit significant volatility across various jurisdictions. While some capital cities are currently approaching the low point of their price cycles, others remain stubbornly high. For motorists, the ability to recognise these patterns and time their fueling accordingly remains the most effective way to minimise household transport expenses.

The analysis of state and territory pricing reveals a diverse landscape. In New South Wales and Victoria, the price gap between metropolitan centres and regional areas has widened, making it essential for commuters to check local prices before they have traveled too far. Queensland continues to offer competitive pricing on E10, while Western Australia's predictable weekly cycle remains a reliable guide for those looking to optimise their savings. South Australia and the Northern Territory have seen more stable diesel prices, though premium petrol grades continue to fluctuate based on international terminal gate price movements.

When analysing the cheapest fuel nationally by type, E10 remains the most budget-friendly petrol option for compatible vehicles. Unleaded 91 continues to be the primary benchmark for most consumers, while those requiring Premium 95 or 98 should be particularly vigilant, as the price spread for these fuels can vary significantly between competing service stations. Diesel prices are currently reflecting a slight softening in global demand, providing some relief for those in the transport and agricultural sectors.

Money-Saving Tips

  • Monitor the Cycles: Fuel prices in major cities often follow a cyclical pattern. Avoid fueling at the peak and try to hold out for the price floor.
  • Choose E10: If your vehicle is compatible, switching to E10 can provide immediate savings at the pump compared to standard Unleaded 91.
  • Compare Local Areas: Prices can vary by several cents even between neighbouring suburbs. Use digital tools to find the cheapest station on your planned route.
  • Loyalty and Discounts: Always utilise supermarket discount vouchers and loyalty cards, which can be stacked with already low prices to further reduce the cost.
