Michigan drivers are paying an average of $3.55 per gallon for regular unleaded. But prices in Metro Detroit vary widely, with some stations charging far less and some significantly more.
On Saturday, a station at Mack and I-75 in Detroit was charging $4.39 a gallon.
Motorists are paying an average of $53 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; an increase of about $3 from 2025's highest price last August, AAA reports.
"Gas prices across Michigan have skyrocketed, with drivers paying the highest prices since August of 2024," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. "If crude oil prices continue to climb, pump prices may increase further."
