In the Lviv region, fuel prices are also climbing. As of March 5, the costs are:

  • Premium A-95 gasoline — 72.64 UAH
  • A-95 gasoline — 68.86 UAH
  • A-92 gasoline — 65.99 UAH
  • Diesel fuel — 70.03 UAH
  • Automotive LPG — 40.80 UAH

These figures show a slight premium over the national averages for the region.

A similar price pattern is evident in the Kyiv region. On March 5, prices were:

  • Premium A-95 gasoline — 72.61 UAH
  • A-95 gasoline — 68.65 UAH
  • A-92 gasoline — 67.74 UAH
  • Diesel fuel — 69.24 UAH
  • Automotive LPG — 40.07 UAH

This indicates that fuel costs in the capital area remain elevated, with some variation between specific fuel grades.

The Poltava region is also seeing higher prices. On March 5:

  • Premium A-95 gasoline — 72.85 UAH
  • A-95 gasoline — 68.75 UAH
  • A-92 gasoline — 67.49 UAH
  • Diesel fuel — 68.89 UAH
  • Automotive LPG — 40.17 UAH

This provides further evidence of the nationwide trend of increasing fuel expenses.

The persistent rise in fuel prices remains a pressing concern for Ukrainian motorists and consumers, generating widespread public discussion.

It is important to note that the Ministry of Finance provides this price data excluding the temporarily occupied territories of Crimea, Sevastopol, and parts of Donbas. Therefore, the information reflects the situation in government-controlled Ukraine. These rising fuel costs are a significant economic indicator, reflecting broader trends in energy resource pricing. This situation is a source of anxiety for consumers and may prompt further discussion at the state level, as transportation and production costs are directly tied to fuel prices, potentially affecting the price of goods and services across the country. The Ukrainian hryvnia (UAH) is the local currency, and these prices are indicative of domestic market conditions.
