Petrol prices in Victoria.
Regional Victorian petrol prices are reported under the state’s mandatory scheme (Servo Saver), with the same one-day public-feed delay as Melbourne’s – the government releases its public data a day behind, statewide. This page tracks the ABS Rest of Vic. region: every reporting station outside Greater Melbourne – Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo included.
Is petrol cheaper in Melbourne or regional Victoria?
As at day’s end on 12 July 2026, regional Victoria’s median Unleaded 91 price of 171.9 c/L sits 6.0 c/L above Greater Melbourne’s 165.9 c/L. The gap isn’t fixed: Melbourne runs a price cycle and regional Victoria doesn’t, so the difference moves week to week.
| Area | Median U91 (c/L) | Cheapest | Most expensive | Stations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Greater Melbourne | 165.9 | 141.5 | 239.9 | 945 |
| Regional Victoria | 171.9 | 149.3 | 329.9 | 696 |
Diesel: the regional Victoria median is 191.9 c/L across 572 stations – Greater Melbourne’s is 188.9.
Day’s-end figures from official Servo Saver data – every reporting station inside the ABS boundaries (Greater Melbourne; Rest of Vic.), median not mean, one station one vote. Victoria’s public feed runs a day behind, regional and metro alike. How these figures are calculated. The live station board for the capital is on the Melbourne page; the app carries every station in Victoria live.
Are petrol prices in regional Victoria going up or down?
Steady this week – regional Victoria’s Unleaded 91 median has moved less than 2 c/L over the past seven days and sits at 171.9 c/L. Regional Victoria doesn’t move in one region-wide price cycle the way a capital does – prices differ town to town, and the gap between stations is where the saving is.
How pricing works in regional Victoria
Victoria’s mandatory reporting rules cover the whole state – since 6 August 2025 every Victorian station must report price changes within 30 minutes, whether it’s in Melbourne or Mildura. The government reserves the real-time feed for its own Servo Saver channel and publishes the public feed a day behind, so FuelNow labels every Victorian price “yesterday” – regional and metro alike.
Since 10 March 2026 Victoria also caps each day’s prices in advance: stations lodge a next-day maximum and prices can drop during the day but can’t go up. On the ABS boundary, Geelong sits outside Greater Melbourne – it counts as regional here, along with Ballarat, Bendigo and the rest of the state.
