French Fuel Prices Hit Lowest Level Since 2021

An OPEC+ decision to boost August output alongside a strong euro could prolong four-year low fuel costs for motorists.

Si ces quelques centimes peuvent sembler insignifiants, la différence se ressent sur la facture finale. Pour un plein de 50 litres, ainsi, elle peut atteindre, dans le cas du gazole, quatre euros entre 2024 et 2025, et jusqu’à dix-sept euros par rapport au pic de 2022.
En juillet, le litre de gazole s'élevait à 1,62 euro et celui de Sans Plomb 95 à 1,66 euro.

Overview

  • Official data show average July 2025 diesel at €1.6279 per liter and unleaded 95-E10 at €1.6694, marking the cheapest rates since July 2021.
  • A 50-liter diesel fill cost about €81.40 in July, saving motorists roughly €4 year-on-year, while unleaded savings reached about €6.60 per 50 liters.
  • Brent crude prices declined around 10% from mid-June to early July, dropping from about $79 to $70 per barrel and easing wholesale costs.
  • The euro’s appreciation against the dollar has automatically lowered euro-denominated pump prices by cutting import expenses.
  • OPEC+ announced plans to raise August production and IFPEN futures curves point to continued downward pressure on fuel costs.
