Cheap fuel in Hobart

Right now the cheapest E10 reporting in the Hobart area is 196.7c/L at United in North Hobart, and the cheapest diesel is 242.9c/L in Cambridge. That is about 6.2 cents a litre under the Hobart 14-day average of 202.9c/L - the gap you pocket by timing the fill-up. Of the 70 stations reporting in the catchment, the most common chains are Ampol (16), United (11) and BP (9). Lindisfarne is the cheapest local area to fill up at 195.9c/L.

Hobart sits inside the wider metro fuel market, so it runs the same price cycle as the capital - just not in lockstep. Outer and satellite suburbs typically lag the inner-metro centres by 24 to 48 hours: when the city bottoms out on a Tuesday, the trough often does not reach Hobart until Wednesday or Thursday, and the overnight hike back to the peak can land a day late too. That lag is an opportunity - it stretches the window where a genuinely cheap fill is still on the board locally after the inner suburbs have already snapped back.

Reading Hobart fuel prices by region is how you exploit it. The cycle still rewards mid-week filling - Tuesday to Thursday - but the exact day shifts with the lag, so a live read beats a calendar rule of thumb. The catchment here also pulls in stations just over the suburb line, and those neighbours often undercut the headline sites by a clear margin, which is why the cheapest pump is frequently a short drive rather than the servo on your commute.

Where is the cheapest fuel in Hobart today? With 70 reporting stations in the catchment, led by Ampol, the tables below answer that live by fuel type, and Lindisfarne is currently among the cheaper nearby suburbs worth the detour.
