How UAE Fuel Prices Are Set

UAE petrol prices are revised every month by the UAE Fuel Price Committee and apply uniformly at all stations - ADNOC, ENOC, and Emarat - across all seven emirates. Prices have been aligned with global crude oil benchmarks since fuel subsidies were removed in 2015.

Aug 2026 saw petrol grades rise by roughly 6% from Jul 2026, as firmer global crude oil benchmarks fed through to the pump. Diesel gained 0.20 AED/litre, adding to running costs for motorists, logistics, and supply chain sectors.

New prices are announced on the last day of each month and take effect on the 1st. Special 95 suits most standard cars, SUVs, and crossovers. Super 98 is for high-performance and luxury vehicles. E-Plus 91 is used by commercial fleets, taxis, and older vehicles.

UAE Petrol Prices | August 2026 Updated Fuel Rates

UAE fuel prices are revised every month by the official UAE Fuel Price Board and apply uniformly at all stations - ADNOC, ENOC, and Emarat - across all seven emirates including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. Prices have been benchmarked against global crude oil markets since fuel subsidies were removed in 2015, making the UAE one of the most transparently priced fuel markets in the Middle East.

August 2026 petrol prices in the UAE rose by roughly 6% from July 2026, as firmer global crude oil benchmarks fed through to the pump - Super 98 climbed to AED 3.60, Special 95 to AED 3.49, and E-Plus 91 to AED 3.41. Diesel rose by 0.20 AED/litre to AED 3.80, adding to running costs for motorists and the UAE logistics, transport, and supply chain sectors. New prices are announced on the last day of each month and take effect from the 1st of the following month.

UAE Fuel Grades Explained

Special 95 is the most widely used petrol grade in the UAE, suitable for standard cars, SUVs, crossovers, and family vehicles. Super 98 is recommended for high-performance engines, luxury cars, and sports cars where higher octane delivers better engine response. E-Plus 91 is used primarily by commercial fleets, taxis, and older vehicles with lower compression engines. Always check your vehicle manufacturer's recommended octane rating before refuelling.

How UAE Petrol Prices Affect Car Buying

Monthly fuel price changes directly impact the running costs of vehicles in the UAE. Buyers shopping for used cars in UAE or new cars in Dubai increasingly factor in fuel efficiency alongside purchase price. SUVs with larger engines consume more Super 98 or Special 95, while sedans and hybrid vehicles offer lower monthly fuel costs.
