German Fuel Prices Dip Slightly as Diesel Premium Persists

Evening refuels cut German pump prices by about 13 cents per liter.

Overview

  • As of July 30, the national average for Super E10 stands at €1.668 per liter and Diesel at €1.615, marking week-on-week declines of 0.5 and 0.8 cents respectively.
  • Despite a roughly 20-cent tax advantage for Diesel, its price remains only 5.3 cents below Super E10, a gap the ADAC deems unusually narrow.
  • Energy levies account for 65.45 cents of gasoline costs and 47.04 cents of Diesel per liter, with additional CO₂ charges of about 16 cents on gasoline and 17 cents on Diesel before VAT.
  • Motorway stations typically add around €0.40 per liter in premiums, prompting drivers to compare pump apps and timing for better deals.
  • Cross-border filling in Austria and Croatia can cut gasoline bills by up to 20 cents per liter and Diesel costs by around 10 cents compared with German prices.
