As a result of the low-cost gas station Plenoil opening its doors in Arrecife on July 30 with an opening price for a liter of gasoline below 1.2 euros, the rest of the establishments on the island lowered their prices to be able to compete.
The result was that Lanzarote became in August the island with the cheapest fuel in the archipelago, with an average price of 1.210 euros per liter, according to the Lanzarote Data Center.
Today Lanzarote has already accumulated four months in that position. The island had the lowest prices in the archipelago not only in August, but also in September (1.182) and October (1.162). It should be remembered that in July, a liter of gasoline had marked an average of 1.377 in Lanzarote.
The latest data available at the close of November confirm Lanzarote as the island with the lowest prices. The average cost of 95 gasoline in Lanzarote is currently 1.178 euros, while in Gran Canaria, the second cheapest island, it marks 1.181 euros. Next, Tenerife, where the liter is at 1.208 euros.
And the discounts are not only noticeable in 95 gasoline, in the case of 98 gasoline Lanzarote also adds four months with the best prices in the archipelago. Currently the liter costs on average 1.318 euros. Next, Tenerife (1.327) and Gran Canaria (1.328).
The same happens with diesel. If in July it marked 1.252 euros per liter and was among the most expensive, since August, Lanzarote has accumulated four months with the lowest average price in the Canary Islands. In November it marked 1.177 euros per liter. Next Gran Canaria (1.181) and Fuerteventura (1.184).
