Drenthe is the province where, on average, motorists get the most for a Euro 95 filling station. The most expensive petrol station in the Netherlands, Esso De Abt, is in the province of Flevoland and the cheapest, an Aers petrol station, can be found in Zeeland.


This is according to research by the ANWB. According to the traffic and tourism organisation, petrol prices in the Netherlands can vary considerably from one petrol station to another. By choosing smartly, it is possible to save considerably on petrol costs on an annual basis. According to ANWB, Drenthe is the province where prices for a litre of Euro 95 are the lowest on average. Here, motorists pay an average of 1.799 euros. In contrast, Limburg is on average the most expensive province for a fill-up, at 1.985 euros. This results in a difference per litre of euro unleaded between the two provinces of almost 20 euro cents per litre.

Most expensive and cheapest

There are two filling stations that are by far the most expensive in the Netherlands when it comes to refuelling with Euro 95, according to the ANWB. Esso De Abt on the A6 motorway near Nagele in the Noordoostpolder charged an average of 2.309 euros for a litre of Euro 95 last year. Esso petrol station ‘Groote Veldblokken’ on the A37 near Zwinderen in Drenthe did not come close, also charging an average of 2.309 euros for a litre.

The very cheapest petrol station in the Netherlands, according to the ANWB, was an Aers petrol station on the N689 in Kloosterzande, Zeeland. This filling station charged an average of €1.779 for a litre of Euro 95.

The price difference between the cheapest and the two most expensive filling stations in the Netherlands hereby comes to an average of 53 euro cents per litre, according to ANWB data. On a fill-up of about 40 litres, this results in a price difference of over 21 euros.

Large differences

Late last year, research by MultiTankcard showed that a Kreuze filling station in Frederiksoord, Drenthe, charged the lowest prices at the pump on average for a litre of Euro 95: 1.72 euros per litre. A TotalEnergies’ unmanned filling station on Ameland was by far the most expensive in the Netherlands, according to the same survey. The price difference between the two filling stations averaged about 58 euro cents per litre last year, according to MultiTankcard.
