Chicago drivers find Shell, BP, Mobil, Marathon and Citgo stations throughout the metro, with prices varying notably between the city (higher, with local taxes) and the surrounding suburbs. The interstates; I-90, I-94 and I-290. Carry the larger travel-plaza stations. EV charging is expanding across the suburbs and along the tollways.
Local tips

- Travel plazas on I-90/I-94 suit long fill-ups and diesel.
- Tollway oasis stops increasingly include DC fast charging.
