Counted from OpenStreetMap on 20 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.

Wellington's forecourts, Z Energy (headquartered here), BP, Mobil and discounters Gull and Waitomo, cluster along SH1/SH2 and the harbour arterials, with hill suburbs largely stationless. Wind and hills raise consumption. The capital's EV uptake is high, with chargers at the waterfront and park-and-rides.

Local tips

  • Hill suburbs have no stations. Fill on SH1/SH2 or the Hutt Road strip.
  • Discounters (Gull Petone, Waitomo) beat CBD-adjacent prices clearly.
  • Ferry crossings: fill before boarding; South Island prices differ, and Picton's options are few.

Wellington has more charging points mapped than fuel stations, 67 against 54. That is still rare, and it makes this an easy place to arrive on a low battery. See Wellington on the map →

Helpful guides

Check before you drive, not after

The map is free to read, and confirming that a station has fuel takes one tap with no account. A price, a comment, opening hours or a review needs a free Google sign-in — that is what puts your name on it, and it also brings a streak, saved stations and the driver message board.

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.
