The core idea
The comparison price matters. A saving against the local average is different from a saving against the most expensive local station or another stop on your route. Read the benchmark shown alongside each result.
What the local website figures mean
Cheapest vs average shown compares the cheapest listed result with the average of the matching station prices shown. Cheapest vs highest shown compares the cheapest with the highest listed result. Both use a 55-litre example fill to keep postcode pages consistent. They exclude detour fuel and show price differences rather than money already saved. Enter your litres in the calculator or app for a personal comparison.
What the journey estimate includes
A journey comparison combines the selected station price, expected fill amount, vehicle fuel economy and extra road distance. A traffic-aware time estimate, where available, is separate from the fuel-only saving. Estimated remaining range is not a guarantee that a station is reachable.
Inputs the saving can use
How the estimate is calculated
- The displayed benchmark identifies the price used for comparison.
- The price difference, multiplied by the litres you expect to buy, gives the pump-price saving.
- Additional road distance and estimated MPG give the fuel used by the detour.
- The cost of that extra fuel is subtracted from the pump-price saving.
- Time, convenience and estimated remaining range are shown or considered separately; they are not guaranteed outcomes.
Why this matters
Two drivers can reach different results for the same station. Use the fuel grade, fill amount and fuel economy that match your vehicle and journey.
Important note
Fuel prices, availability and journey conditions can change. These are planning estimates, not recorded savings or guarantees. An older price-change timestamp does not automatically mean a price is wrong; check the price at the pump before buying.
