German Fuel Prices Slide as E10 Hits Lowest Level Since November 2024

ADAC says diesel pricing still fails to reflect its tax advantage.

Overview

  • The nationwide daily average for Super E10 reached €1.647 per liter on Tuesday, down 2.4 cents week over week.
  • Diesel averaged €1.592 per liter, a weekly drop of 3.6 cents that remains above lows seen in October.
  • ADAC deems the current E10 price broadly in line with oil market movements after recent declines.
  • The association criticizes a narrow 5.5-cent gap between E10 and diesel despite diesel being taxed about 20 cents less per liter.
  • Coverage pairs the price update with immediate savings advice for drivers, including earlier upshifts, anticipatory driving, moderating speed, proper tire pressure, removing excess weight, and routine maintenance.
