the estimated cost in Chinese Yuan (RMB) to fill a 60-liter fuel tank across major countries/regions, based on prevailing gasoline prices (likely 92/95-octane equivalents).Key Accurate Elements:Cheapest countries:Iran (¥12) and Venezuela (¥14) have extremely subsidized fuel, often under $0.10–0.15 USD per liter (sometimes as low as $0.02–0.11/L depending on the grade and source). This matches multiple reports placing them among the world's cheapest.
Saudi Arabia (¥256) and Malaysia (¥281) are also low due to oil production/subsidies, consistent with data showing Gulf and Southeast Asian producers well below global averages.
Mid-range countries (Russia, Japan, US, China, Brazil, etc.):China (~¥492 for 60L) aligns roughly with reported prices around ¥8–9.20 per liter in March 2026 (government caps limited hikes amid global volatility). That's about ¥480–552 for 60L.
US (~¥444) fits typical US prices (often lower than many developed nations due to lower taxes).
European countries (UK, Spain, France, Germany) and others like Canada, Australia, and Singapore show progressively higher costs, matching higher taxation in those markets.
Most expensive:Hong Kong at ¥1639 stands out dramatically with a red warning icon. This is accurate—Hong Kong has repeatedly ranked as the world's highest gasoline price in early 2026, often exceeding HKD 30–32 per liter (~USD 3.8–4.11/L). For 60L, that equates to roughly HKD 1,800–1,930 (or ~¥1,600+ at typical exchange rates), with full-tank costs cited around HKD 1,300+ even with discounts. Drivers sometimes cross into mainland China to save money.
Singapore (~¥1067) is also among the highest globally due to taxes and import reliance.
Context and Caveats:The chart uses RMB (Yuan) as the unit, likely for a Chinese audience comparing "how much to fill up."
Prices fluctuate with global oil markets (spiked in 2026 due to Middle East tensions, including Iran-related conflicts), subsidies, taxes, and exchange rates. The data appears to capture a snapshot from around March 2026.
Hong Kong's extreme position and the huge gap to others (e.g., Germany/Israel ~¥968–969 vs. Hong Kong's ¥1639) is real and widely reported.
Minor variations could exist by fuel grade, exact date, or discounts (many HK stations offer promotions bringing effective prices lower)
