Understanding fuel price rankings
European fuel prices span a wide range. At the top you'll find countries with high excise duties (Netherlands, Finland, Italy), while at the bottom you'll find countries with lower taxation or subsidies (Kosovo, Poland, Bulgaria). Tax is the single biggest factor in cross-country differences.
How rankings are calculated
Rankings sort all covered countries by their reported fuel price for the selected fuel type (petrol, diesel, or LPG) in EUR per liter. For non-eurozone countries, prices are converted using mid-market exchange rates. Lower EUR/L price = higher rank (cheaper).
Why rankings change
Rankings shift due to crude oil price changes, government interventions (subsidies, excise adjustments), exchange-rate movements for non-Euro countries, and seasonal demand patterns. A country that introduces a temporary subsidy may jump several positions lower, only to return when the subsidy expires.
