The consumption of gasoline in the United States amounted to some 8.69 million barrels per day in March 2025. In the period of consideration, gasoline consumption reached its highest four-week average in July 2024. Gasoline production and sales Despite the U.S. reporting a decrease in domestic motor gasoline refinery production in recent years, the gasoline market has been thriving, with gasoline sales across various stations in the country totaling 654 billion U.S. dollars in 2023. Meanwhile, real gasoline prices for end users climbed to around 1.4 real U.S. dollars per gallon. Gasoline vs diesel Both diesel and gasoline are derived from crude oil. Gasoline, however, undergoes a more extensive refining process, resulting in a more volatile compound compared to diesel. This characteristic accelerates the combustion of gasoline, yielding greater horsepower in practical applications. Diesel's advantage lies in its slower burn, which makes it especially fuel efficient and more favorable for heavy-duty vehicles. The average consumption of diesel fuel in the United States stood at 4.09 million barrels per day in March 2025.

Gasoline consumption in the United States transportation sector amounts to around 8.5 million barrels per day. In 2023, gasoline consumption increased, while distillate fuel oil (diesel) consumption noted a decrease. 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 1.6 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.

Domestic gasoline demand in the United States reached 139.29 billion gallons in 2022. This was a slight decrease compared to the previous year and still below pre-pandemic levels. Gasoline consumption is largely related to highway travel, with smaller amounts spent by the agricultural and marine sector.

This table shows the supply and consumption of petroleum products and crudes as a balance sheet.

Petroleum products include the fuels LPG, motor gasoline and diesel oil. The balance includes products used for processing or consumption in the Netherlands as well as those intended for transit.

Crudes are crude oil, natural gas liquids and additives (intermediates for motor gasoline and transport diesel). Separate balance sheet items are available for feedstocks for processing in the Netherlands and for feedstocks for the transit trade. The difference between the two flows is that import tax is paid for products destined for production in the Netherlands, while it is not paid for transit goods.

The following standard densities are used to convert from kg to liters of Gasoline, Diesel and Autogas delivered including excise duty: Petrol 0.75 kg/l, Diesel 0.836 kg/l and LPG 0.535 kg/l.

This table replaces the next tables:
