Counted from OpenStreetMap on 19 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.

Johannesburg's stations (Engen, Shell, BP, Sasol, TotalEnergies and Astron) blanket the N1/N3/M1 web and every suburb. Inland fuel carries a transport premium over coastal prices, adjusted monthly by the state. Attendant service is universal, and EV charging is South Africa's most developed.

Local tips

  • Monthly price adjustments (first Wednesday) are national news. Fill ahead of hikes.
  • Load-shedding can idle pumps; stations with generators keep flowing.
  • EV charging along the N1 Gautrain corridor is the country's densest.

Not one charging point is mapped in Johannesburg yet, so if you drive an EV, plan on the assumption that there is nothing here until someone maps one. See Johannesburg on the map →

In Johannesburg the filters that actually narrow things down are diesel (171) and LPG (50). Travelling at night, switch on "open now": 4 places are tagged 24/7. When you arrive, a quick confirmation keeps the map right for the next driver in Johannesburg.

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.

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.
