The average annual price of diesel fuel in Germany tended to rise between 1950 and 2025. The price increase has increased significantly since 2020 in particular, only to fall again slightly from 2023. As of April 2025, the average diesel price was roughly 166.3 cents.
The 2025 annual OPEC oil price stood at ***** U.S. dollars per barrel, as of May. This would be lower than the 2024 average, which amounted to ***** U.S. dollars. The abbreviation OPEC stands for Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and includes Algeria, Angola, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and the United Arab Emirates. The aim of the OPEC is to coordinate the oil policies of its member states. It was founded in 1960 in Baghdad, Iraq. The OPEC Reference Basket The OPEC crude oil price is defined by the price of the so-called OPEC (Reference) basket. This basket is an average of prices of the various petroleum blends that are produced by the OPEC members. Some of these oil blends are, for example: Saharan Blend from Algeria, Basra Light from Iraq, Arab Light from Saudi Arabia, BCF 17 from Venezuela, et cetera. By increasing and decreasing its oil production, OPEC tries to keep the price between a given maxima and minima. Benchmark crude oil The OPEC basket is one of the most important benchmarks for crude oil prices worldwide. Other significant benchmarks are UK Brent, West Texas Intermediate (WTI), and Dubai Crude (Fateh). Because there are many types and grades of oil, such benchmarks are indispensable for referencing them on the global oil market. The 2025 fall in prices was the result of weakened demand outlooks exacerbated by extensive U.S. trade tariffs.

Request an accessible format.Gasoline consumption in the United States transportation sector amounts to around 8.5 million barrels per day. In 2024, gasoline and distillate fuel oil (diesel) consumption decreased. Gasoline consumption is close to three times higher than diesel consumption, the latter amounting to less than three million barrels per day. Energy demand in the transportation sector The transportation sector, which includes public and personal transportation by road vehicles, airplanes, trains and ships, is the second-largest energy-consuming sector in the United States. The majority of energy consumed in this sector is derived from petroleum or crude oil. However, thanks to government incentives, annual biofuel consumption in the U.S. has also increased to over 1.9 billion gallons. Consumption of motor fuels remains steady amid lower car sales Distillate fuel can be used as either fuel oil or diesel fuel. The figures indicate that gasoline is still the most popular transportation fuel in the U.S. Gasoline and diesel consumption has stayed relatively constant over the last two decades, whereas U.S. car sales have notably decreased since 2014.
The U.S. auto industry sold nearly ************* cars in 2024. That year, total car and light truck sales were approximately ************ in the United States. U.S. vehicle sales peaked in 2016 at roughly ************ units. Pandemic impact The COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted the U.S. automotive market, accelerating the global automotive semiconductor shortage and leading to a drop in demand during the first months of 2020. However, as demand rebounded, new vehicle supply could not keep up with the market. U.S. inventory-to-sales ratio dropped to its lowest point in February 2022, as Russia's war on Ukraine lead to gasoline price hikes. During that same period, inflation also impacted new and used car prices, pricing many U.S. consumers out of a market with increasingly lower car stocks. Focus on fuel economy The U.S. auto industry had one of its worst years in 1982 when customers were beginning to feel the effects of the 1973 oil crisis and the energy crisis of 1979. Since light trucks would often be considered less fuel-efficient, cars accounted for about ** percent of light vehicle sales back then. Thanks to improved fuel economy for light trucks and cheaper gas prices, this picture had completely changed in 2020. That year, prices for Brent oil dropped to just over ** U.S. dollars per barrel. The decline occurred in tandem with lower gasoline prices, which came to about **** U.S. dollars per gallon in 2020 - and cars only accounted for less than one-fourth of light vehicle sales that year. Four years on, prices are dropping again, after being the highest on record since 1990 in 2022.
The United States exported roughly 10.8 million barrels of petroleum per day in 2024. The figures include distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil and ethanol blended into motor gasoline. As the U.S. has increased its production volume through implementation of unconventional extraction methods, the volume of petroleum products being exported notably increased, peaking in 2024.
