Fuel advice

Comparing fuel prices in Sydney

Compare the reported price, update time and distance before choosing a station in Sydney.

This page compares 64 stations across 7 fuel types in Sydney, NSW. Use the price tables to narrow the choice, then use the map for distance and directions.

What today's prices mean in Sydney

Service stations in Sydney can change prices during the day, so the city average is a guide rather than a bowser price. The reported diesel average is 238.5 c/L, and the lowest report is 11.6c/L below it. Check the station update time and distance before travelling for the difference.

For each station, check the fuel type, report time and distance. An older report or a station well off your route may not be worth a small price difference. If your vehicle uses diesel, premium or an ethanol blend, use the fuel-type table instead of the diesel list. Prices for different fuels do not always move together.

Is a detour around Sydney worth it?

The gap between the lowest and highest reported diesel price in Sydney is 18.0c/L. Prices may differ by suburb as well as brand. For a detour, allow for the extra kilometres and check that the lower report is recent.

Lower suburb averages currently include Mount Lewis, West Ryde, Roselands and Enfield South. Open a suburb page to compare its service stations, report times and distance. A suburb average is not the price at every bowser.

Recent local history for Sydney: Thursday had the lowest recent weekday average. Weekly patterns vary, so check today's station reports as well. The fuel map shows reported prices along your route. Prices are drawn from FuelCheck. Check the station update time and confirm the final price at the bowser.

Before you choose a station

Choose the fuel type your vehicle uses, compare stations within the distance you are willing to drive and check when each price was reported. Use a station on your normal route unless the price difference covers the extra travel. Brands reporting in Sydney include Metro, Independent, Speedway. Compare individual stations because a brand average can hide local differences.
