Overview
- ADAC data from roughly 14,000 stations show diesel averaging €1.640 per litre, up 2.7 cents week over week and 7.5 cents in three weeks.
- Super E10 stands at €1.689 per litre nationwide, about 1.2 cents higher than the prior week, with a smaller rise than diesel.
- Brent crude moved only slightly near $65 a barrel as the euro strengthened, a combination that does not account for the pump-price jump.
- Regional gaps remain wide, with Bremen and Brandenburg among the most expensive and Berlin and Saarland among the cheapest; Brandenburg diesel averages €1.681 and Saarland €1.605.
- The Bundeskartellamt is examining unusually high prices in parts of eastern Germany, while motorists are advised to use price apps, fuel in the evening, and avoid motorway stations to save up to 12–13 cents per litre.
