Fuel Prices in Europe: What Every Traveller Should Know

Fuel is one of the biggest costs of travelling by motorhome or campervan. Prices across Europe vary significantly from country to country — the gap between the cheapest and most expensive markets can reach 40–60%, making a real difference to your travel budget.

What Determines the Price of Fuel

The pump price is made up of several components: the commodity price of crude oil and refined products, excise duty and VAT (which can account for up to 60% of the retail price in some EU countries), and distributor and forecourt margins. Each EU country sets its own excise rate above the common minimum — which is why the Netherlands and Finland are consistently among the most expensive markets, while Poland and Bulgaria remain among the most affordable.

How to Save on Fuel When Travelling

When planning a multi-country route, it pays to fill up before entering a high-price country — for example, before crossing into the Netherlands, Switzerland, or Finland. Use our calculator to estimate costs for each leg in advance and identify the best places to fill up.

Toll roads — the second big line in a trip budget

Fuel is not the only bill on the road. On a European route toll charges easily add tens of euros: France, Italy and Spain charge per kilometre; Austria, Switzerland, Czechia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria require a vignette; and individual bridges and tunnels — Mont Blanc, Frejus, the Bosphorus crossings — are paid at a fixed price. We hold rates for 85 countries, 8 vignette countries, 26 individual motorways and 168 bridges, tunnels and toll booths, cross-checked against 48 reference routes. The tariff depends on the vehicle class — car, camper up to 3.5 t, over 3.5 t — and the "Avoid toll roads" switch shows what the detour would really cost.

Calculating Electric Vehicle Trip Costs

The calculator supports electric vehicles: switch fuel type to "Electric", enter your car's kWh/100 km consumption and choose your charging mode — home AC or public DC fast charging. Charging tariffs are auto-filled per country from our database. Typical consumption: Tesla Model 3 — 16–18, VW ID.4 — 18–20 kWh/100 km; expect 15–30% more in winter and at motorway speeds.
