ValeCard Survey Shows Widespread Decline in Fuel Prices in September, Influenced by Oil Price Drop and Regional Tax Adjustments

In September 2025, the price of gasoline and diesel decreased in 19 Brazilian states, while ethanol recorded a decline in 16 federative units, according to the national survey by ValeCard, a company specializing in mobility solutions and corporate payment methods. The analysis, conducted between September 1 and 26, considered more than 25,000 gas stations across the country. According to the study, the movement reflects the effects of the temporary oil downturn in the international market and regional cost and tax adjustments, although localized increases still persist in states with greater logistical weight.

The average price of gasoline was R$ 6.374, a slight reduction of R$ 0.001 (-0.02%) compared to August. The ethanol averaged R$ 4.442, an increase of R$ 0.033 (+0.75%), while diesel S-10 dipped R$ 0.009 (-0.14%), reaching R$ 6.298. These values reflect real payments made at ValeCard-accredited stations, making the survey a true snapshot of price behavior.

According to Marcelo Braga, Director of Mobility and Operations at the company, “September brought a relief scenario for fuels, with gasoline and diesel prices declining in 19 states. The combination of a weaker oil price abroad and regional cost and tax adjustments explains the variations, although adjustments occur at different rates among states,” the executive highlighted in an interview on September 30, 2025.
