How your fuel price is determined

When you start a freight job, the fuel price is locked based on the country of departure. If your location cannot be identified (e.g. when driving on a mod map), the system uses the average of the highest 5 fuel prices worldwide.

When do fuel prices change?

Prices are randomised daily by an automated VTLog system that runs at 06:00 UTC. Each country can go up, down or stay the same. The change per day is between 0.5% and 1.5%.

Tips

  • Fill up in countries with cheaper diesel before crossing the border.
  • Switch games using the toggle in the top right to compare ETS2 and ATS prices.
  • The trend column shows today's percentage change vs. yesterday.
