DEARBORN, MI— Gas prices in Michigan are down 13 cents from a week ago. Michigan drivers are now paying an average of $2.85 per gallon for regular unleaded. This price is 4 cents less than this time last month and 24 cents less than this time last year.
Motorists are paying an average of $42 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; a discount of about $8 from 2025's highest price last August.
According to new data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gasoline demand increased from 8.30 million b/d to 8.74 million. Total domestic gasoline supply decreased from 259.1 million barrels to 255.8 million. Gasoline production increased last week, averaging 9.4 million barrels per day.
At the close of Wednesday’s formal trading session, WTI rose $2.86 to settle at $65.19 a barrel. The EIA reports crude oil inventories decreased by 9 million barrels from the previous week. At 419.8 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are about 5% below the five-year average for this time of year.
"Drivers across Michigan are seeing lower pump prices to start the week," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. "If gasoline supply continues to decrease, alongside rising demand, pump prices could possibly reverse course."
Compared to last week, Metro Detroit’s average daily gas price decreased. Metro Detroit’s current average is $2.92 per gallong, about 7 cents less than last week’s average and 20 cents less than this same time last year.
