How we check accuracy

How we forecast

FuelRadar has helped Australian drivers find cheaper fuel since 2020. Each estimate starts from Adelaide'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. Based on the Adelaide P95 outlook, adjusted by -5.2 c/L using local price history. The likely range widens with each day ahead.

Next-day estimates missed by 0.6 c/L on average, closer than assuming prices stay the same (0.7 c/L).

Forecast questions

When will P95 prices go down in Hillcrest?

Estimate only: P95 in Hillcrest is estimated to edge down about 2.6 c/L, to 220.7 c/L by Fri 20 Nov (likely 210.0–238.5), from 223.3 c/L estimated for Fri 13 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 Hillcrest?

There is no fixed best day for Hillcrest. 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 Adelaide were off by 0.6 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.
