Cheapest petrol and diesel in Dublin today as fuel prices reach 18-month record low

Fuel prices have fallen to their lowest levls since the start of the war in Ukraine.

That's according to AA Ireland, who say the average petrol price across the state is €1.59, the lowest since September 2021. Diesel fuel has also dropped significantly, with the average at €1.51, 9 per cent less than last month.

If you're looking to save a few quid, we found these filling stations in the capital that are advertising low prices today with one place selling petrol for just 157.9c per litre, and another station selling diesel for 147.7c per litre.

Motorists won’t be able to enjoy these prices for too long, however, as a phased restoration of previously reduced rates of excise on petrol and diesel will take place in three stages over the coming months.

AA Ireland's Head of Communications Paddy Comyn said: "We already know that unless prices fall again, then petrol will be back up to around €1.80 per litre and diesel to €1.76 per litre by the end of October. Which were the same as at the start of the Ukraine conflict."
