DEARBORN, MI— Gas prices in Michigan are down 18 cents from a week ago. Michigan drivers are now paying an average of $4.01 per gallon for regular unleaded. This price is 73 cents less than this time last month but still 72 cents more than this time last year.
Motorists are paying an average of $60 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; an increase of about $9 from 2025's highest price last August.
According to new data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gasoline demand increased from 8.73 million b/d to 9.21 million.
