Montana gasoline price increases

Overview

Gasoline prices in Montana have trended upward, rising from an average of $4.27 per gallon to $4.31 per gallon over a two-week period. This increase has shifted Montana’s ranking from the 12th highest state for gas prices in the U.S. to the 9th highest.

In Montana, prices have risen approximately 22.6 cents compared to the previous month and are over $1.00 higher than the previous year. Nationally, gasoline and diesel averages have also seen increases. Analysts attribute these rising costs to rebounding oil prices, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries.
