Why watch the France → Spain diesel gap?
Drivers routinely cross this border for work, holidays or transit. When the official weekly diesel average in France is materially higher than in Spain, delaying a fill-up until Spain can save several euros on a 50 L tank.
Is this the pump price at the border?
No — these are national weekly averages from the Weekly Oil Bulletin. Border stations can be higher or lower. Check Smart search or a live map (where available) for stations near your crossing.
Weekly average or live border price?
This page is weekly national averages from the EU Weekly Oil Bulletin. It is not a live border quote. Station-level prices (where we have them) live under Live maps / Smart search — and only for markets we actually cover.
What does the HOT badge mean here?
The gap was under our wide-gap threshold (~€0.12/L) in the previous Weekly Oil Bulletin and above it in the latest one. Corridors that have been wide for several weeks stay listed, but without the badge.
How much can I save on 50 litres?
At the current official gap of +0.437 €/L, filling 50 L on the cheaper side vs the dearer side is about €21.85 — before any local station premium.
How do I compare France and Spain further?
