Fuel Price Map: Does Your Petrol Cost More?

The growing cost of fuel at the petrol station forecourt has been one of the most noticeable price rises. Even with chancellor Rishi Sunak's 5p per liter reduction in fuel tax, motorists are spending far more to fill up than they were only a few months ago.


  • Inflation reaches a 30-year high and may continue to grow further.

  • Stock markets that behaved as if the Ukraine war had never occurred.


Increased demand as a result of the epidemic has already resulted in a rise in petrol prices. Now, it is the war in Ukraine and sanctions against Russia that have pushed petrol prices to a record high, threatening the West's supply of fuel.


With this in mind, we asked colleagues at Interactive Investor to locate the cheapest and most costly petrol station forecourts in their neighborhood for the weekend of 26-27 March 2022.


We've previously conducted our own investigation into the cost-of-living problem, lately noticing a huge increase in the price of pasta and other common household products at local supermarkets. Now, we've taken the road to ascertain the prices motorists pay for unleaded and diesel at forecourts throughout the United Kingdom.


While it is a quick survey of hand-selected stations, it covers the whole length and width of the United Kingdom and reveals some enormous regional discrepancies.


Our results are shown in the interactive Gas Fuel Price Map of the United Kingdom below.


Congratulations if you reside in Cardiff. According to our study, it is the cheapest spot to get fuel, with a gallon of unleaded costing 156.7p. It's 169.9p, an 8.4 percent increase, three and a half hours up the highway in Stockport. Is it prohibitively expensive? If you go 50 miles to Leeds, you can purchase it for 156.9p.


With an average fuel tank capacity of 55 liters, filling up in Stockport costs £7.26 more than in Cardiff. If you drive a diesel vehicle, the fee is much higher - £8.25. At 169.9p, Leeds is the cheapest destination for diesel drivers. In Manchester, a liter costs 184.9p, an increase of 8.8 percent.


While diesel is much more costly than unleaded, the difference in price between the cheapest unleaded and the most expensive diesel is 28p, or 18%, a terrific price for going electric!
