How we check accuracy

How we forecast

FuelRadar has helped Australian drivers find cheaper fuel since 2020. Each estimate starts from Sydney's reported daily city averages and how they have moved recently. A city daily average is FuelRadar's scheduled morning average of the city's reported station prices, the figure this page quotes for every capital. Where a city has a regular price cycle, the estimate projects that cycle; elsewhere it follows the recent trend, blended with the latest dated wholesale price change. These are Sydney city averages, not a separate Empire Bay forecast. The likely range widens with each day ahead.

Next-day estimates missed by 0.7 c/L on average, closer than assuming prices stay the same (0.7 c/L).

Forecast questions

When will P95 prices go down in Empire Bay?

Estimate only: P95 in Empire Bay is estimated to edge down about 4.7 c/L, to 228.7 c/L by Sat 21 Nov (likely 218.8–244.6), from 233.4 c/L reported Sat 14 Nov. Past 7-day estimates missed by about 4.5 c/L on average, only slightly less than assuming prices stay the same (4.7 c/L). The dated 30-day forecast shows a likely range, not a promised low date. Check current station prices before changing when you fill.

What is the best day to buy P95 in Empire Bay?

There is no fixed best day for Empire Bay. Compare current reported station prices and their update times. A recent high or a lower estimate does not confirm a cheaper date.

How accurate is FuelRadar Australia's P95 price outlook?

Not accurate enough yet to tell you to fill or wait, so we don't. From 10 Oct to 8 Nov our next-day P95 forecasts for Sydney were off by 0.7 c/L on average over 30 days checked. That beat assuming prices wouldn't move (0.7 c/L).

Do higher prices mean they will fall soon?

A recent high does not confirm a turnaround. Compare the reported movement with the estimated range. If that range still includes today's price, a fall is not established. Check current station prices before deciding to wait.

How often is the outlook updated?

We update the forecast overnight. For anything that changed today, check the map.
