The price of fuels is once again a point of interest for thousands of drivers this Friday, September 11, 2026, especially for those who use gasoline, diesel, LPG, or CNG daily. Differences between establishments can represent several soles when filling the tank, so checking prices before going to the gas station can help reduce monthly expenses.

In the Peruvian market, there is no single national price for each fuel. The amount the consumer pays depends on the establishment, location, local competition, and other commercial factors. Therefore, the references published in the media should be understood as a guide and not necessarily as the exact amount each driver will find at their usual gas station. The Facilito app by Osinergmin allows you to compare nearby stations and see which offer the most economical prices.
How much do gasoline and diesel cost today?
Gasolines and gasoholes remain among the most used fuels by private drivers. Their price can show significant differences between Lima and other cities, and even between gas stations located just a few blocks apart. Therefore, before refueling, it is advisable to check the updated price at the chosen station.
In the case of diesel, the price also depends on the establishment and market conditions. This fuel is especially important for cargo transport vehicles, buses, and other work units, so any variation ends up impacting operating costs and, eventually, the price of certain services.
Regular gasohol from S/18.79 in Lima
Regular gasohol is sold from S/18.79 per gallon at stations in Villa El Salvador, one of the lowest references reported for Metropolitan Lima. In San Juan de Lurigancho, on the other hand, the same product starts at S/19.40, while in Los Olivos it is offered from S/19.09.
The difference can directly affect the wallet. For example, a car with a 15-gallon tank can pay about S/9 more if it fills regular gasohol at S/19.40 instead of S/18.79. The variation is due to factors such as location, transportation costs, competition, and the commercial policy of each establishment.
Diesel and premium gasohol with different prices
Diesel is sold from S/22.79 per gallon in Comas, while in Carabayllo the reported reference is S/22.99 and in Rímac it rises to S/23.99. For those who use cargo vehicles, transport, or diesel pickups, these differences can have a greater impact due to the volume of fuel required each day.
Meanwhile, premium gasohol records rates from S/20.09 per gallon in Villa El Salvador and reaches S/20.99 in San Miguel. Prices are referential and may change depending on availability, the update time of each gas station, and distribution conditions, so it is recommended to verify them before traveling.
Price of CNG and LPG: what should drivers know?
CNG maintains a relevant role in Peruvian transportation, particularly among taxis and vehicles converted to use natural gas. LPG, for its part, is also used by a significant number of cars. Both fuels are often compared by drivers looking to reduce refueling expenses.
However, choosing where to refuel can be as important as choosing the fuel. Facilito allows using the phone’s location to find nearby stations and highlight the lowest price options. The official tool also only includes formal gas stations and stations registered on its platform.
Where to check the cheapest fuel price?
To know the most convenient price in real time, one of the official alternatives is Facilito by Osinergmin. The application allows searching for nearby gas stations, comparing the recorded prices for different fuels, and locating those establishments that appear with the most economical prices.
This query is especially recommended before making a trip to refuel, as prices can be updated and do not always match previously published references. Additionally, Osinergmin points out that users can report through the application when the displayed price does not match the one found at the establishment.
For this Friday, September 11, 2026, the recommendation for drivers is to compare several stations before deciding where to refuel. A seemingly small difference per gallon or cubic meter can become a considerable saving for those who use the vehicle every day, especially taxi drivers, delivery people, and transporters.
