Your fill. Your car. Your route.
See the saving after the detour.
A cheaper pump price is only part of the decision. Smart Savings subtracts the estimated fuel used on the extra drive from the saving on your fill-up.
How much will you buy?
The same price difference means more on a large fill than a small top-up.
What does your car use?
Your MPG changes the estimated fuel cost of the extra miles.
How far is the extra drive?
Road routes are used where available. Fast estimates are labelled separately.
For a 10-litre top-up, the same 40p/litre gap saves £4.00 at the pump. The £5.30 extra-fuel cost means spending about £1.30 more overall.
Compare stops for your car and your journey
Start with the right fuel grade, then compare the price and the extra drive. The website offers free nearby and route searches; the app also keeps your saved vehicles, fill-ups and live traffic checks together within your plan allowance.

Compare detours on real roads
A station can look close on the map while the road takes a longer way round. Road estimates compare driving routes where available, including the extra miles needed for the stop; fast estimates are labelled separately. Smart Savings subtracts the estimated detour fuel from the pump saving.

Questions about prices, detours and the app
Use the app while safely parked or plan before setting off.
Is cheaper fuel worth driving further?
It depends on the price difference, how much fuel you buy, your MPG and the extra road miles. Smart Savings estimates the pump-price saving minus the fuel used on the detour. Time, tolls and crossing charges are separate.
How does Route & Fuel work with Google Maps?
Compare fuel prices and estimated detour savings in Route & Fuel, then open your chosen station in Google Maps for directions. Check the route before setting off. This does not automatically import or synchronise a Google Maps route.
Is Route & Fuel a UK fuel finder app?
Yes. Route & Fuel is an independent UK fuel finder app and website for iPhone, iPad and Android. It combines nearby station prices with route and detour checks.
Can I search fuel prices without installing the app?
Yes. The website provides a free postcode and current-location search. Each result can open a detailed station page or Google Maps.
What is different from a basic cheapest-fuel app?
Smart Savings compares the pump saving with estimated detour fuel costs and your vehicle’s MPG. Road estimates use driving routes where available; fast estimates are labelled separately. Live traffic checks add traffic-aware ETA and detour information within your plan allowance.
Is there an Android version and an iPhone version?
Yes. Route & Fuel is available from Google Play for Android and from the App Store for iPhone and iPad.

Is Route & Fuel the official government Fuel Finder app?
