Cheapest fuel in London
Compare live petrol and diesel prices across London and Greater London. Fuel in the capital is among the priciest in the UK, so a few pence a litre across the M25 quickly adds up on a busy work van. Prices below refresh throughout the day from the UK government's open fuel-price scheme, and the cheapest unleaded we can see right now is 136.8p a litre.

How to find the cheapest fuel in London
Fuel is one of the biggest running costs for any London driver — and for tradesmen doing 20,000+ miles a year it's a serious chunk of the wage bill. Prices between forecourts in Greater London can differ by 10p a litre or more, so a quick compare before you fill can save hundreds of pounds a year.
- Supermarket forecourts (Asda, Tesco, Morrisons, Sainsbury's) are usually the cheapest in London.
- Fill up before joining the motorway — service-station fuel is almost always dearer.
- Prices move daily, so check live figures rather than relying on last week's price.
- Diesel and unleaded don't always track together — switch the toggle above to compare your fuel.
