With the start of the new year, price boards at fuel stations across Turkey have been updated. Fluctuations in Brent crude oil prices, movements in exchange rates and recent tax increases continue to have a direct impact on fuel prices. As a result, many citizens are searching for answers to questions such as “How much is gasoline today?”, “What is the current diesel price per liter?” and “How much does LPG cost now?”. Here are the updated gasoline, diesel and LPG prices as of Friday, January 2, 2026.

Tax Increases Continue to Affect Fuel Prices

Volatility in global markets, exchange rate movements and consecutive hikes in the Special Consumption Tax (SCT) remain key factors shaping fuel prices.
