Lara fuel market analysis

Diesel listings in Lara average 195.0¢/L across 2 reporting sites, with a low of 187.0¢/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 Lara average about 182.5¢/L where stations publish 95 or 98 octane. Shell 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 (192.7¢/L), Shell Lara sits 19.7¢/L below 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 1.2¢/L comparing the last seven snapshot days with the prior week. When the metro average shifts, Lara stations usually follow within a short window — watching both this station page and the Lara suburb board keeps you ahead of a sudden cycle rise.
