Mexico Publishes Daily Map of Gas Stations Selling Diesel Above Agreed Price

Officials say the tool will pressure non‑participating outlets to join a voluntary price pact, giving consumers data to choose lower‑priced stations.

Overview

  • The government launched the interactive map on Friday to identify service stations selling diesel above the voluntary reference prices and to make that information public.
  • Authorities report 8,603 stations — about 84% of the sector — have joined the voluntary diesel price stabilization pact after 618 recent additions, while 1,538 stations remain outside the agreement.
  • The map is updated daily and is available at https://seguimiento-precios.energia.gob.mx/precios-diesel so consumers can locate outlets that charge higher diesel prices before they refuel.
  • The disclosure is part of a coordinated package that includes temporary IEPS tax stimuli, negotiated cuts in electronic payment commissions, Pemex supplying fuel at competitive rates, and stepped-up logistics and security operations.
  • Officials say the measures aim to keep national reference diesel prices below 27.00 MXN per liter and below 25.39 MXN per liter in border zones, which could lower transport costs and ease price pressure for lower‑income households.
