Houston, America's energy capital, has an enormous forecourt network; Shell, Exxon, Chevron, RaceTrac, QuikTrip and Buc-ee's along the Beltway 8 and I-610 loops. Texas prices are among the nation's lowest, tracked by official EIA weekly data. EV charging is expanding despite the oil-town image, especially at retail centres.
Local tips
- Fuel here is close to the cheapest of any big U.S. metro; warehouse clubs cheapest of all.
- Hurricane season: keep the tank half-full June–November in case of evacuation notices.
- Beltway 8 toll sections have sparse shoulders, so fill before long loop drives.
Only 16 of the 805 stations mapped in Houston say whether they sell diesel. The rest probably do; nobody has recorded it. See Houston on the map →
