UAE Lowers Petrol Prices for November 2025: Full Savings Breakdown for Motorists
The UAE’s Fuel Price Committee has announced a welcome decrease in fuel costs for November 2025, offering relief to motorists across the Emirates. The new rates, effective from November 1, reflect global market trends and mean lower prices at the pump for all petrol grades.
November 2025 Fuel Prices: The New Rates
The committee has approved the following prices per litre, showing a significant drop from October’s rates:
Super 98: AED 2.63 per litre (down from AED 2.77 in October)
Special 95: AED 2.51 per litre (down from AED 2.66 in October)
E-Plus 91: AED 2.44 per litre (down from AED 2.58 in October)
This represents a uniform decrease of 14 fils per litre for all major petrol types, marking one of the more substantial monthly reductions seen in 2025.
How Much Will You Save Per Fill-Up?
The real-world impact of this price drop means tangible savings every time you visit the pump. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the cost for a full tank based on common vehicle classes:
Compact Car (~51-litre tank):
Super 98: AED 134.13 (Saves AED 7.14 vs. October)
Special 95: AED 128.01 (Saves AED 7.65 vs. October)
E-Plus 91: AED 124.44 (Saves AED 7.14 vs. October)
Sedan (~62-litre tank):
Super 98: AED 163.06 (Saves AED 8.68 vs. October)
Special 95: AED 155.62 (Saves AED 9.30 vs. October)
E-Plus 91: AED 151.28 (Saves AED 8.68 vs. October)
SUV (~74-litre tank):
Super 98: AED 194.62 (Saves AED 10.36 vs. October)
Special 95: AED 185.74 (Saves AED 11.10 vs. October)
E-Plus 91: AED 180.56 (Saves AED 10.36 vs. October)
As the figures show, drivers of larger vehicles like SUVs can save over AED 10 per fill-up, while smaller car owners will still see meaningful savings that add up over the course of a month.
Why Are UAE Fuel Prices Decreasing?
The monthly price adjustment is a direct result of the UAE’s fuel price deregulation policy. The committee sets prices by tracking the global average of crude oil and refined product costs, combined with local operating expenses.
The November decrease is primarily linked to a dip in global crude oil prices earlier in the calculation period. This was influenced by:
Market Oversupply: Increased production levels from certain oil-producing nations.
Demand Concerns: Worries about slowing global economic growth reducing fuel consumption.
Currency Fluctuations: Changes in the US dollar exchange rate, which impacts oil prices.
This mechanism ensures that domestic pump prices reflect international market movements, passing on savings to consumers when the underlying cost of oil falls.
What This Means for You and the Future
For the average motorist, this price cut offers a slight reduction in the cost of living. For frequent drivers, ride-hailing service providers, and logistics companies, the collective savings can be more significant.
However, motorists should note that this is a monthly adjustment. The UAE fuel price for December 2025 could swing back up depending on geopolitical events, OPEC+ production decisions, and global economic trends. The current relief is positive, but the market remains volatile.
The Bottom Line
November brings cheaper fill-ups for all UAE residents. While the savings per litre are modest, they provide welcome relief for household and business budgets. Motorists are advised to stay informed by checking the official UAE fuel price announcement at the end of each month to better manage their transportation expenses.
