Overview

  • Average national E10 prices fell 1.8 cents last week to €1.669 per liter, while diesel dipped 1.1 cents to €1.617.
  • The E10 price gap between Saarland and Sachsen-Anhalt reached 9.9 cents per liter, marking the widest state-by-state disparity.
  • Diesel differentials span 7.8 cents between Saarland and Brandenburg, prompting the ADAC to label diesel “overpriced” this summer.
  • Berlin remains a low-price island in the otherwise costly east thanks to high station density, whereas Hamburg ranks among the most expensive.
  • The ADAC urges motorists to fill up in the evening and avoid Autobahn service stations to secure the best prices.
