How these numbers are worked out. Every figure is the median price across every priced site in the country, and every range is the 10th to 90th percentile — not the cheapest and dearest pump, so a single mistyped price can't move what you read here. Prices come from the state government fuel feeds (FuelCheck NSW, FuelPricesQLD, FuelWatch WA, Fair Fuel VIC, SA) and only count if they were updated in the last 72 hours. A price is discarded if it sits more than 30c below its own state and fuel-type median, which is how a feed's occasional nonsense figure gets caught; prices above the median are kept, because remote roadhouses genuinely charge far more. 44 prices discarded this build. Prices as at 27 October 2026, 9:15am.
Worth knowing

Ampol and Ampol Foodary are not the same price

Same company, same points program, 7.0c a litre apart. Ampol Foodary sites run a typical 237.9c against 244.9c at sites branded plain Ampol — $3.50 a tank, and you earn Everyday Rewards at both. If you have a choice of the two, the Foodary is usually the cheaper one.

How much can you save by picking the right brand?

The spread between the cheapest and dearest brand is 12.4c a litre, which is $6.20 on a 50L fill. Within any one brand the spread between its own sites is usually wider than that, so the servo matters more than the sign.
