East-West divide
Fuel prices: Filling up is particularly expensive in Tyrol
Prices at domestic petrol stations rose noticeably at the beginning of 2025. According to the ÖAMTC, there is still a clear east-west divide in Austria. This means that you have to dig particularly deep into your pockets to fill up in Tyrol.
The average price of petrol in Austria in January was 1.571 euros, 6.3 cents higher than in December 2024. Diesel cost an average of 1.609 euros in January (up 6.2 cents). "These price increases are significantly higher than the three cents per liter that can be justified by the increase in the CO₂ price at the turn of the year," emphasizes the ÖAMTC.
Cause of the price increase
The mobility club sees the cause in the increased oil price. "In mid-January in particular, its level also caused prices at the pumps to briefly rise to their highest levels of the year to date of 1.619 for super and 1.659 for diesel. Towards the end of the month, this surcharge was somewhat reduced, so that since the beginning of February it has been possible to fill up again at slightly lower prices," the ÖAMTC calculated in a press release.
Clear east-west divide
Currently - as of February 4 - the median prices are EUR 1.586 (super) and EUR 1.612 (diesel). There is still a strong east-west divide in Austria. In Tyrol, Vorarlberg and Salzburg, prices are mostly above the Austrian average.
Even more expensive on freeways
Refueling is most expensive along the freeways. "The highest prices there rose from 2.099 to as much as 2.129 euros in mid-January and - in contrast to the average prices - are currently remaining at this level."
