VIC Fuel Price Movements and Daily Trends This Week
Diesel was the standout mover, falling 11.4c in metro areas and 10.7c in rural VIC. That's a meaningful drop for tradies, fleet operators, and anyone running a diesel vehicle.
U91 told a steady story across the week, sliding consistently from 181.8 c/L on Monday the 1st down to 172.3 c/L by Sunday the 7th, with no mid-week spikes or reversals. Rural U91 followed the same downward path, though the falls were softer, moving from 186.1 c/L to 179.3 c/L over the same period.
P95 dropped 8.1c metro to 192.5 c/L, mirroring U91's weekly move almost exactly. The rural P95 gap over metro is slim at just 3.0c, which is narrower than usual for a premium grade.
E10 is your cheapest option this week at 173.2 c/L metro, and it's the one fuel where metro and rural averages are identical, making it a rare equaliser across the state.
P98 sits at 201.4 c/L metro, a fall of 8.0c on the week. Rural drivers pay 205.5 c/L, a gap of just 4.1c over metro, which is relatively tight for premium unleaded.
How Much You Can Save by Shopping Around in VIC
The spread between the cheapest and priciest metro stations this week is genuinely staggering. OOM Energy Tarneit was recording 149.5 c/L while BP Montrose hit 499.9 c/L. That's a 350.4c gap at the extremes, which is extraordinary even accounting for the outlier at the top end.
Brand averages tell a clearer everyday story. Costco averaged 166.3 c/L across its 3 metro stations, Apco came in at 168.7 c/L, and Metro Petroleum sat at 169.8 c/L. At the other end, Caltex averaged 184.4 c/L across 15 metro stations and EG Ampol came in at 178.4 c/L. That's an 18.1c gap between the cheapest and priciest brands, which adds up fast if you're filling a 60-litre tank.
Last Sunday, the 7th of June, was the cheapest day to fill up across the week, with metro U91 touching 172.3 c/L.
VIC Metro Petrol Price Forecast: 8–10 June 2026

The forecast has prices easing to 170.9 c/L on Monday (78% confidence), 170.1 c/L on Tuesday (71% confidence), and 169.3 c/L on Wednesday (65% confidence). All three days sit below the current metro average of 176.5 c/L, so if you can wait a day or two, the data suggests you'll pay less.

Metro areas only. A forecast is an estimate from recent price history — the model gives a direction and a confidence for each day, not a price range.
For context, VIC metro U91 at 176.5 c/L sits 4.5c above the national metro average of 172.0 c/L. South Australia is the cheapest state right now at 163.2 c/L.
How Victorian Drivers Can Save on Fuel This Week
The two consecutive weeks of falls are welcome, but VIC is still above the national average, so station choice matters more than ever. Seeking out an independent or a Costco if one's on your route could save you well over 10c per litre compared to a major-brand servo. E10 at 173.2 c/L is your cheapest metro option if your car is compatible. And with the metro forecast pointing toward 169c by mid-week, holding off on a big fill until Monday or Tuesday looks like a smart call.
