Counted from OpenStreetMap on 3 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.

Cologne's dense network of Aral, Shell, Esso, TotalEnergies and budget JET and STAR stations spreads along the city ring and the A1/A3/A4 motorway box. German fuel prices swing several cents within a single day, so timing matters. EV charging is extensive, with rapid hubs at retail locations and along the Rhine corridor motorways.

Cologne has more charging points mapped than fuel stations, 822 against 244. That is still rare, and it makes this an easy place to arrive on a low battery. See Cologne on the map →

Plan your stop

In Cologne the filters that actually narrow things down are diesel (115), LPG (43), CNG (11) and CCS charging (121). Travelling at night, switch on "open now": 326 places are tagged 24/7. When you arrive, a quick confirmation keeps the map right for the next driver in Cologne.

Frequently asked questions

What should drivers know about fuelling in Cologne?

Prices typically dip in the evening (around 18:00–22:00). Avoid filling in the morning peak. JET and STAR stations usually undercut Aral and Shell by a few cents per litre. Cologne's Umweltzone requires a green emissions sticker for the city centre.

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.
