Fuel prices in Baja, effective August 2nd, 2014...
Fuel prices for August 2nd, 2014...
Magna.............$ 12.95 pesos per liter
Premium..........$ 13.67 pesos per liter
Diesel..............$ 13.50 pesos per liter
These prices are in liters... since 1 gallon = 3.7854 liters and today (August 2nd, 2014) 1 dollar = $12.50 pesos (+/-), we can calculate the
approximate price per gallon:
Magna.............$ 3.921 dollars per gallon
Premium..........$ 4.139 dollars per gallon
Diesel..............$ 4.088 dollars per gallon

Prices are the same here in T or C or a little less right now. Cheaper on I-10 and in Abq, same with the big cities in Colorado. New Mexico is
pricier than Arizona for once too, that's a switch.

Heading back down from Canada next week. Currently unleaded price in Edmonton, Alberta is $1.29/ liter = #4.90/ gal.Will fill up in Montana and then
again in Mesquite, NV and was going to wait until after crossing border for final fill up but now it's just as cheap in San Diego so there's no point.

Yes, the fuel for the state Baja (Norte) California is all Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel. The rest of Baja (Sur) may be only Low Sulfur and not Ultra Low...

Typically the exchange rate is posted above the 'caja' (cashier) for all to see. Otherwise ask the attendant what it is before pumping, if you need to
know in advance.
While dollars are accepted everywhere in Baja, getting pesos at the start of your trip (at least for gasoline purchase and meals) at the established
bank rate may make your trip less stressful?

Antonio posted the following 7 years ago (on July 30th, 2007):

In Mexico, low sulfur diesel (or ultra low sulfur diesel), which has content of 15ppm (or less) of sulfur, has been slowly introduced nationwide since
last year (October 2006).
In Baja California Norte, all gas stations began receiving it (and therefore selling it) since January 2007. In Baja California Sur it has not been
introduced yet... they are schedule to have it in the later part of this year.

..but if you get pesos from the ATM and use those at PEMEX you get closer to the official exchange rate which is 13.2 today. In fact at my last HSBC
ATM transition I got 6000 pesos for $465.15 (including fee) = 12.9P/$US

Stupid question... I went from one gasser to two diesel vehicles. How common is it to get diesel at Pemex south of, say, Ensenada?
