Mexico maps non‑compliant diesel stations amid price‑cap program
The Mexican government launched an interactive map to pinpoint fuel stations that have not adhered to the voluntary agreement to keep diesel prices below the national reference of 27 MXN per litre (and below 25.39 MXN per litre in border zones). Out of roughly 8,603 stations—about 84 % of the sector—1,538 continue to sell diesel at higher prices.
In the state of Chihuahua, 60 stations were flagged, with 23 located in Ciudad Juárez where prices were reported as high as 25.99 MXN per litre. The map, published by the Secretaría de Energía and Pemex, is updated daily to encourage compliance.
Separately, the federal government and gasoline retailers maintain a voluntary cap on regular gasoline at 24 MXN per litre through August, aiming to curb price spikes during the vacation travel period and to demonstrate control over visible consumer costs.
