Fuel prices: the official map to compare gas stations near you

The price-fuels.gouv.fr website is the unique official website, edited by the Ministry of Economy, which informs in real time about the prices and availability of the main fuels in the service stations throughout the territory. The service is free, accessible from a computer, tablet or smartphone, and the operators of the stations themselves update the rates with each evolution. This makes it possible to select the cheapest station before filling up and check that the necessary fuel is available.

From news to action

Who is concerned

All motorists in France, including immigrants and residents of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, who drive diesel, SP95, SP95-E10, SP98, E85 or GPLc. The information also concerns service station managers: any point of sale that has sold at least 500 cubic meters of these fuels is required to declare its prices, under penalty of a fine.

What to do

Visit the price-fuels.gouv.fr website and use the "Find a point of sale" tool by entering your department, municipality or postal code to compare the prices of nearby stations. Before a trip, open the menu "Find a route", choose your fuel and your cities of departure and arrival: the tool displays the route, distance, duration, stations on the route and their prices. If you wish, create a personal space to record your favorite stations and routes and receive alerts; in case of doubt, consult the FAQ available on the site.

Background

Fuel prices can vary significantly from one station to another, including in the same area, which represents a real saving for motorists, especially in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes where many use their cars daily. There is now a single formal platform that makes reference to this issue, fed by the operators themselves. Information is available free of charge and without registration.

Why it's important

Checking this official card avoids paying too much for petrol or diesel and does not unnecessarily search for a station offering the right fuel. The site indicates addresses, prices for each fuel and momentary unavailability, which is valuable before a long journey, for example in the mountain area. It also identifies stations experiencing difficulties in supplying petrol or diesel.
