Counted from OpenStreetMap on 26 August 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.

Istanbul's two-continent sprawl is served by Petrol Ofisi, Opet, Shell, BP and TotalEnergies along the O-1/O-2 rings, the bridges and the D100. Heavy fuel taxes make LPG hugely popular, and otogaz pumps are ubiquitous. EV charging (Trugo, Eşarj, ZES) is scaling with Togg's home market push.

Local tips

  • LPG cuts running costs ~40% — the dominant economy choice citywide.
  • Bridge and tunnel crossings at peak are slow; cross with fuel to spare.
  • Trugo/ZES fast chargers now cover the malls and the O-7 motorway.

Only 42 of the 353 stations mapped in Istanbul say whether they sell diesel. The rest probably do; nobody has recorded it. See Istanbul on the map →

Driving in Istanbul

Istanbul spans two continents; otogaz (LPG) is extremely common, and EV fast charging is growing along the main highways and bridges.

Istanbul is in Turkey, so you can expect Benzin 95 petrol, motorin, and Type 2 / CCS EV charging, with prices in Turkish lira (TRY). Traffic drives on the right.

  • Petrol grades: Benzin 95
  • Diesel: motorin
  • LPG (autogas): very widespread otogaz (LPG)
  • EV charging: Type 2 (AC), CCS (DC)

One map for fuel, charging and repair

Open it, look, drive on. If you saw something worth passing on, you can confirm fuel or a working charger there and then without an account. A price or a comment needs a free Google sign-in.

Why Refuelia

The only honest map of fuel & EV — worldwide

Where there’s really fuel and a really working charger, right now. Prices come from drivers — someone types in what they actually paid, so it is real, timestamped, and missing until somebody posts it. We never invent a number. Fuel and EV together, worldwide, free.

What a pin can say

Fuel available
a driver confirmed it, and the card says when
Limited fuel
some grades out, or a queue at the pump
No fuel
somebody stood there and told us
Open by its timetable
the posted hours say open. Nobody has checked
No fresh report
and the map says so, rather than guessing

Every other map draws the first one and stops. The last two are the point: when nobody has checked, this map says nobody has checked, instead of guessing green.
