Welcome to the FuelRadar national petrol price report for March 31, 2026. As motorists hit the road, understanding the current price cycles across Australia is crucial for finding the best value. National trends indicate a varied landscape, with some capital cities approaching the peak of their price cycles while regional areas experience more stable baselines. By keeping an eye on these fluctuations, consumers can easily analyse the market, optimise their purchases, and secure significant savings at the bowser.
Analysing the cheapest prices across our states and territories reveals distinct regional disparities. Historically competitive markets like New South Wales and Victoria continue to offer excellent opportunities for savings, particularly in suburban centres. Meanwhile, motorists in states like Western Australia, with its unique weekly price cycle, must time their trips carefully.

When reviewing the cheapest fuel nationally by type, E10 consistently provides a lower entry price point for compatible vehicles, making it a popular choice for budget-conscious drivers. Premium unleaded options and diesel maintain their traditional premiums, but aggressive discounting by independent retailers means the gap can frequently narrow. The table below highlights the absolute cheapest stations nationwide for E10, regular unleaded, premium blends, and diesel.

Money-Saving Tips
- Understand the Cycle: Petrol price cycles vary by capital city. Always check if prices in your local centre are trending up or down before filling the tank; timing it right can heavily work in your favour.
- Choose E10: If your vehicle is compatible, opting for E10 instead of regular unleaded can yield immediate and noticeable savings.
- Support Independents: Independent retailers frequently offer highly competitive pricing to attract customers away from the major chains.
- Avoid Highway Stations: Petrol stations located on major highways or near airports typically charge a premium. Fill up in suburban areas where competition drives prices down.
