General fuel market analysis

Diesel listings in General average 295.5¢/L across 6 reporting sites, with a low of 279.0¢/L. Towing, ute, and delivery drivers should compare diesel separately because it does not always move in lockstep with unleaded during Melbourne cycle peaks.

Premium grades in General average about 276.0¢/L where stations publish 95 or 98 octane. Caltex drivers running manufacturer-spec premium should check both premium columns on the suburb comparison table — the cheapest premium site is not always the cheapest unleaded site.

Against the Melbourne metro ULP reference (188.1¢/L), Caltex sits 94.9¢/L above the board average today. That context helps you judge whether this forecourt is early- or late-cycle without relying on interstate benchmarks — our data is Victoria-only.

Melbourne-wide unleaded has firmed about 3.2¢/L comparing the last seven snapshot days with the prior week. When the metro average shifts, General stations usually follow within a short window — watching both this station page and the General suburb board keeps you ahead of a sudden cycle rise.
