How to find the cheapest gas and EV charging in the US
Across the US the price per gallon can differ by 30 to 50 cents or more between nearby stations. On a 15-gallon fill-up that is several dollars every visit, so knowing where to look is the easiest way to save hundreds of dollars a year.
Refil shows the cheapest EV charger around you on a map and highlights the best option in green, so you decide at a glance. Fuel prices cover Spain, France, Germany, Italy and Portugal, for when you drive in Europe.
Where the prices come from
Refil aggregates gas and EV charging prices from official and public sources, including national survey data such as AAA Gas Prices and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). Prices are refreshed regularly so you get reliable figures without driving from station to station.

Tips to save
- Warehouse clubs (Costco, Sam's Club, BJ's) are typically the cheapest — start there.
- Avoid gas near highways and airports, where prices run higher.
- Compare by your exact fuel (Regular, Premium, diesel…); the ranking changes.
- For EVs, charging at home on an off-peak rate is almost always the cheapest option.
- On the road, compare public networks (Tesla Supercharger, Electrify America, EVgo) — DC fast charging costs more than Level 2.
