Autogas station in Germany — prices by region and stations.

Price summary and regulatory framework

The average autogas (LPG) price in Germany is around 1.10–1.22 €/liter in April 2026, with notable variations by supplier, station and region; the trend over the last decade shows peaks in 2022 and a gradual recovery in 2025–2026. Prices vary by brand (Aral, Shell, Q1, independent stations) and by location type (highway, urban, rural): stations on highways and at airports usually apply a surcharge of up to 10–20 cents per liter compared to the urban average; large chains show more stable prices than independents.

Variations by supplier, station and city

In the most recent weekly readings the reported national average price ranges between 1.10 €/l and 1.23 €/l, depending on the source and the station sampling.

Historical trend and forecasts

The weekly historical series of LPG prices in Germany records a minimum in 2016 (~0.48 €/l) and peaks in 2022–2023; since 2024 the curve has stabilized and in 2025–2026 a slight rise is observed linked to energy market volatility and logistics costs. Official weekly series data confirm the recovery since 2023.

Forecasts and factors that will influence the price

Analysts and market sources estimate that, barring geopolitical shocks, autogas will maintain a price advantage over gasoline during 2026–2027, although the gap could narrow if energy taxes rise or if supply costs increase. This forecast depends on oil price evolution and fiscal decisions.

Aid, subsidies and taxation

In Germany, incentive policies have focused on electrification, but there are national and local measures that affect alternative fuels: infrastructure support programs, temporary tax exemptions and subsidies for commercial fleets; the European Alternative Fuels Observatory documents current incentives and recent changes in 2025–2026. Important: direct aid for LPG vehicles is limited compared to those aimed at BEV; however, there are occasional tax benefits for fleets and municipal projects.

Projects, fleets and political statements

At the infrastructure level, Germany maintains a large network of LPG stations (several thousand points), with higher density in North Rhine‑Westphalia, Bavaria and Baden‑Württemberg; recent projects combine LPG stations with electric charging points to create multimodal “hubs”. The LPG vehicle fleet has shown a trend toward stabilization or a slight decline in passenger car registrations, while use in commercial and agricultural vehicles remains relevant. The political debate prioritizes electrification, but government and sector representatives have recognized that LPG can play a transition role in rural areas and in specific applications; in addition, gas/hydrogen network programs and network planning influence the medium‑term energy strategy.

If your priority is immediate savings, autogas remains competitive; for purchase or conversion decisions it is advisable to compare local prices, calculate payback of the installation and monitor fiscal changes announced by the government.
