Fuel Prices Sydney — Live Prices Across Greater Sydney

Sydney has some of the biggest station-to-station price spreads in the country — the same litre of 91 can differ by 30c/L between suburbs on the same day. Petrol Australia shows every registered Greater Sydney station live, from the CBD to Penrith, Campbelltown, and the Central Coast.

Where do Sydney's prices come from?

NSW FuelCheck — the mandatory NSW Government scheme. Every NSW retailer must report price changes within 30 minutes, so the app reflects Sydney's fast-moving prices within minutes of a change. Every price carries a Government Verified badge. See Fuel prices NSW.

The Sydney price cycle

Sydney runs a strong weekly cycle: prices spike Tuesday–Wednesday, then fall over 6–7 days to a bottom around Monday–Tuesday. The swing is regularly 20c/L or more — the single biggest fuel saving available to a Sydney driver is simply filling near the trough.

Why do Penrith and the CBD price so differently?

Western Sydney corridors (Penrith, Blacktown, Liverpool) are heavily competed and often discount hardest during the falling phase; inner-city and motorway sites hold prices higher. During the restoration, suburbs also jump at different times — parts of Sydney can be at the cycle top while others are still cheap. The map view makes those pockets obvious in real time.
