Coventry

At the bottom of the local market, unleaded starts around 155p per litre right now. The very top of the local range is set by a small number of expensive outliers, and most stations sit much closer together than the headline gap suggests.

The supermarket sites, including Tesco, tend to set the floor for prices here. 4 of the 38 local forecourts are supermarket-run, and the rest split between branded and independent operators.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Costco. Several of the busier sites sit along Abbey Park and North London Road, so you can check them against each other without leaving your usual route.

Average unleaded here tracks the wider West Midlands figure closely. Diesel averages around 183p per litre across the stations listed for Coventry.

The comparison covers stations up to roughly 10 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre. Prices in Coventry can move mid-week as well as at weekends, so the ordering above is worth a glance even if you always use the same forecourt.
