FuelWatch reports that, from 6am tomorrow (Wednesday 22 July 2026), the average price of Perth's regular unleaded petrol (ULP) will increase by 15 cents per litre (cpl) to 184.7 cpl with 7-Eleven, Ampol, EG Ampol and BP hiking up to 199.9 cpl; and Caltex up to 189.9 cpl.
Despite the average hike tomorrow, there are still 26 individual sites offering ULP below 167 cpl, so consumers should check the FuelWatch website to find the lowest price near them. Buying fuel from the cheapest site rather than the most expensive, a difference of 40 cpl, means motorists can potentially save $24 on a 60-litre tank.
Tuesday's cheapest ULP is available for:
- 163.9 cpl at 7-Eleven Brabham, 7-Eleven Middle Swan, 7-Eleven Midland and 7-Eleven Wattle Grove in the East;
- 159.9 cpl at OMG Metro Maddington and OMG Metro Yangebup in the South; and
- 159.9 cpl at OMG Metro Dianella in the North.
Wednesday's cheapest ULP will be available for:
- 165.7 cpl at Vibe Mt Helena in the East;
- 159.7 cpl at Vibe Kwinana Town Centre in the South; and
- 161.3 cpl at Burk Landsdale and Burk Mount Lawley in the North.
