The petrol price in UAE has fallen for November 2026, ending a run of three straight monthly increases. Super 98 now costs AED 4.16 per litre, Special 95 costs AED 4.04 and E-Plus 91 costs AED 3.97. Diesel eases to AED 4.75 per litre. The new UAE fuel prices apply from November 1, 2026.
Every petrol grade drops by 24 fils per litre compared with October, while diesel slips by a smaller 5 fils. The cut brings Special 95 and E-Plus 91 back closer to AED 4, although all three grades remain well above where they stood in September.

UAE fuel prices: November 2026 vs October 2026
Fuel type | November 2026 | October 2026 | Change (AED) | Change (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Super 98 | AED 4.16/L | AED 4.40/L | -0.24 | -5.5% |
Special 95 | AED 4.04/L | AED 4.28/L | -0.24 | -5.6% |
E-Plus 91 | AED 3.97/L | AED 4.21/L | -0.24 | -5.7% |
Diesel | AED 4.75/L | AED 4.80/L | -0.05 | -1.0% |
What is the fuel price in Dubai today?
The fuel price in Dubai today matches the national rate: AED 4.16 for Super 98, AED 4.04 for Special 95, AED 3.97 for E-Plus 91 and AED 4.75 for diesel. The committee sets one retail price per grade for the whole country, so individual emirates do not set their own pump prices.
Drivers in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain therefore pay the same price per litre at ADNOC, ENOC, Emarat and other stations throughout November.
How much did UAE fuel prices drop in November 2026?
UAE fuel prices dropped by 24 fils per litre on every petrol grade in November 2026, a cut of between 5.5% and 5.7%. Diesel fell by only 5 fils, or about 1%. E-Plus 91 records the biggest percentage fall because the same 24 fils comes off a lower starting price.
Super 98: down from AED 4.40 to AED 4.16 per litre (-5.5%).
Special 95: down from AED 4.28 to AED 4.04 per litre (-5.6%).
E-Plus 91: down from AED 4.21 to AED 3.97 per litre (-5.7%), slipping back under AED 4.
Diesel: down from AED 4.80 to AED 4.75 per litre (-1.0%).
The smaller diesel cut widens the gap between diesel and Super 98 to 59 fils per litre, up from 40 fils in October. That matters most to pickup owners, logistics fleets and anyone running a diesel SUV on long highway trips.
Super 98, Special 95 and E-Plus 91 prices in UAE explained
Super 98 costs AED 4.16 per litre in November 2026, Special 95 costs AED 4.04 and E-Plus 91 costs AED 3.97. Super 98 suits high-compression and turbocharged performance engines, Special 95 is the everyday grade for most cars, and E-Plus 91 is the cheapest option for engines rated for it.
Your owner's manual or the label inside the fuel flap tells you the minimum octane your engine needs. Paying for Super 98 in a car designed for 91 or 95 adds cost without a meaningful gain, while running a high-performance engine on a lower grade than specified can reduce power and efficiency, which is more noticeable in UAE summer heat.
What is the diesel price in UAE for November 2026?
The diesel price in UAE is AED 4.75 per litre for November 2026, down 5 fils from AED 4.80 in October. Diesel remains the most expensive fuel at UAE pumps, costing 59 fils more per litre than Super 98, after two sharp increases in September and October.
Diesel climbed from AED 4.30 in September to AED 4.80 in October, so November's modest cut only reverses a tenth of that rise. Commercial operators should budget around the higher level rather than expect a quick return to September rates.
UAE petrol prices over the last three months (September to November 2026)
Across September to November 2026, UAE petrol prices rose sharply in October and then eased in November. Super 98 moved from AED 3.80 to AED 4.40 and then AED 4.16. Even after the cut, every petrol grade is still around 35 to 36 fils higher than in September, and diesel is 45 fils higher.
UAE petrol and diesel prices, September to November 2026
Fuel type | September 2026 | October 2026 | November 2026 | Change Sep to Nov |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Super 98 | AED 3.80 | AED 4.40 | AED 4.16 | +0.36 (+9.5%) |
Special 95 | AED 3.69 | AED 4.28 | AED 4.04 | +0.35 (+9.5%) |
E-Plus 91 | AED 3.61 | AED 4.21 | AED 3.97 | +0.36 (+10.0%) |
Diesel | AED 4.30 | AED 4.80 | AED 4.75 | +0.45 (+10.5%) |
In other words, November gives back roughly 40% of October's petrol increase but very little of the diesel increase.
How much does a full tank cost in the UAE in November 2026?
A full tank in the UAE costs about AED 202 to AED 308 in November 2026, depending on tank size and fuel grade. A 51-litre compact car on E-Plus 91 costs around AED 202 to fill, while a 74-litre SUV on Super 98 costs about AED 308, roughly AED 18 less than in October.
Estimated full-tank cost by vehicle size, November 2026
Typical tank size | Super 98 | Special 95 | E-Plus 91 | Saving vs October |
Compact car (51 L) | AED 212.16 | AED 206.04 | AED 202.47 | AED 12.24 |
Sedan (62 L) | AED 257.92 | AED 250.48 | AED 246.14 | AED 14.88 |
SUV (74 L) | AED 307.84 | AED 298.96 | AED 293.78 | AED 17.76 |
These figures use common tank sizes for illustration. Large body-on-frame SUVs such as full-size 4x4s carry tanks of 100 litres or more, so their owners save proportionally more per fill-up this month.
Why do UAE fuel prices change every month?
UAE fuel prices change every month because the country links retail petrol and diesel prices to global energy markets. Since the UAE liberalised fuel prices in 2015, a committee reviews average international prices each month and sets new rates, announcing them on or just before the last day of the previous month.
The main factors behind each monthly decision include:
Global crude oil prices: movements in benchmark crude feed directly into the cost of refined fuel.
Refined-product markets: gasoline and diesel trade on their own markets, which explains why diesel can move differently from petrol, as it did this month.
Supply and demand: production levels, inventories and seasonal consumption all shift prices.
Geopolitical events: regional disruption to oil production or shipping has driven much of the volatility seen in 2026.
What will the petrol price in UAE be next month?
The petrol price in UAE for December 2026 has not been announced yet. The committee will publish the new rates on or around November 30, based on global price movements during November. Until then, the November rates of AED 4.16, AED 4.04, AED 3.97 and AED 4.75 apply.
Treat any forecast circulating online as speculation. YallaMotor will update this page with the confirmed December 2026 UAE fuel prices as soon as they are released.
How should UAE drivers respond to the November fuel price cut?
UAE drivers can use the November fuel price cut to save a little at every fill-up, but prices remain high by historical standards. Choosing the correct octane, keeping tyres inflated in the heat and comparing fuel economy when buying a car will save more over a year than one month's reduction.
If you are shopping for your next car, compare the official fuel consumption of shortlisted models, and consider hybrid cars in the UAE or electric cars in the UAE if your daily commute is long. Our analysis of what rising petrol prices mean for car buyers covers fill-up costs for popular SUVs in more detail.
