Petrol in Peshawar follows the national OGRA notification, but daily fuel spending is very different from Karachi to Quetta because of traffic, distances and vehicle mix. Here is what a Peshawar driver should know.
Latest petrol & diesel price in Peshawar
Peshawar pays the same OGRA-notified maximum ex-depot sale price plus a small dealer commission. Any pump charging significantly more is over-billing you — check the OGRA notification linked below.
Cost of common local trips
University Town to Saddar and back is around 15 km, roughly PKR 330 a day. Peshawar to Nowshera is around 45 km, PKR 990 one way for a 13 km/L car.
Where to fill up
Stick with major OMCs in Peshawar — PSO, Shell, Total-PARCO and Attock. These stations receive regular fuel audits, and their outlets on main arteries turn over stock quickly, meaning fresher fuel.
Saving tips specific to your city
Fuel quality on GT Road is generally better than on side-road pumps. Stick with the main highway OMCs.
