Counted from OpenStreetMap on 7 October 2026 inside a box 15 km either side of the city centre — not the administrative city, which on a large one reaches well past that. These are counts of what drivers have mapped, not a survey of the city: a station that sells diesel but carries no diesel tag is not in the diesel number. If something is missing, open the map and it can be fixed.

Cape Town's stations (Engen, Shell, BP, Sasol, TotalEnergies and Astron) line the N1/N2 approaches and the M3/M5 spines. South African prices are state-set monthly (coastal prices slightly below inland). Attendants pump fuel by law and custom. EV charging is growing along the Garden Route and at the V&A.

Prices in Cape Town appear when a driver reports one or an official feed carries it, always with the time it was recorded, so you can judge for yourself whether it is still true. See Cape Town on the map →

Open the map and see what is actually there

Looking costs nothing and needs no account. Any status a driver confirms carries the time it was made; where nobody has, the map says that instead of guessing, so you can decide for yourself how much to trust it.
