Victorian fuel-price snapshot
Published Diesel prices across Victoria on 30 August 2026.
A dated view of the delayed Service Victoria feed shows why the lowest board price alone may not identify the right stop for a journey.
Victoria at a glance.
The statewide snapshot returned 1,755 listed sites. Of those, 1,715 had a price available for the Diesel comparison after price-quality checks. The median displayed value was 254.9 cents per litre, with 151 distinct published values.
The ranked statewide range was 229.3–312.9 c/L, a spread of 83.6 c/L. Three extreme source reports were retained as reported metadata but suppressed from rankings and these aggregates pending confirmation.
Eight local comparison areas.
Each row uses a 50 × 50 km square centred on the named area. Squares can overlap and have very different station counts, so they should not be combined or treated as a league table.

How to read the snapshot.
Service Victoria prices are published with an approximately 24-hour delay. A displayed value may differ from the pump price when a driver arrives.
Standard Diesel is preferred. A clearly identified Premium Diesel value is used only when it is the site’s sole published diesel price. This applied to 691 statewide records in this snapshot.
This is a dated descriptive snapshot, not a prediction or a trend. Prices, products, opening hours, access and facilities can change after capture.
A lower published price can be outweighed by the fuel and time used on a detour. Compare the full journey and confirm the stop directly before travelling.
Important travel notice
These figures do not guarantee the current pump price, product availability or the cheapest total journey. Confirm the price, opening hours, access conditions and required facilities directly with the station before travelling. Heavy-vehicle users must also confirm legal access, restrictions, clearance and turning space.
