The Price of Fuels Continues to Vary, But How Much Does It Cost to Fill the Kwid’s Tank This Year?
Filling the Kwid’s tank remains a significant expense for Brazilian drivers. With a 38-liter tank, the total cost to refuel directly depends on the average price of gasoline in the country.
Average Price of Gasoline in Brazil
According to data from Petrobras, the current average price of gasoline per liter is R$ 6.30. This value includes taxes, distribution costs, and Petrobras’s share. The structure is as follows:
- Distribution and Resale: R$ 1.09 (17.3%)
- Anhydrous Ethanol: R$ 0.84 (13.3%)
- ICMS (State Tax): R$ 1.47 (23.3%)
- Federal Taxes (PIS, Cofins, CIDE): R$ 0.69 (11.0%)
- Petrobras’s Share: R$ 2.21 (35.1%)
These numbers show that more than a third of the amount goes to Petrobras, while taxes and resale costs make up the remainder.

How Much Does It Cost to Fill the Kwid’s Tank with Gasoline?
With gasoline costing R$ 6.30 per liter, filling the 38-liter tank of the Renault Kwid costs R$ 239.40.
Calculation: 38 liters × R$ 6.30 = R$ 239.40
This is the average value, but the actual cost can vary depending on the state and the gas station.
Price Variation by State
The price of gasoline varies significantly from state to state, mainly due to ICMS, which is individually defined by each federal unit.
In states like Rio de Janeiro, the price per liter can reach R$ 6.18. In São Paulo, the average value is around R$ 6.15.
As a result:
- In Rio de Janeiro, filling the Kwid’s tank (38 liters) can cost around R$ 234.84.
- In São Paulo, the value is about R$ 233.70.
Even with small differences, these values show how the refueling location can impact the final expense. For those who drive every day, this makes a difference at the end of the month.
