Shenzhen, BYD's hometown, runs the world's first fully-electric bus and taxi fleets, and its charging infrastructure is arguably the world's densest. Sinopec, PetroChina and CNOOC stations along the ring expressways serve the remaining petrol fleet at uniform guided prices.
Local tips
- EV charging is world-class; hubs at almost every mall and transport interchange.
- Petrol stations are thinning as electrification advances; note your regular ones.
- Cross-border Hong Kong drivers: mainland fuel is much cheaper, so fill before returning.
Only 13 of the 134 stations mapped in Shenzhen say whether they sell diesel. The rest probably do; nobody has recorded it. See Shenzhen on the map →
Plan your stop
In Shenzhen the filters that actually narrow things down are diesel (13) and LPG (5). 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 Shenzhen.
