Vehicle ownership cost trends in Poland

Overview

Vehicle ownership costs in Poland have increased due to rising fuel prices and insurance considerations. Following the expiration of a government program, the VAT on fuel returned to 23 percent on September 1, 2026, leading to average gasoline prices of 7.89 PLN per liter and diesel at 8.76 PLN per liter.

Additionally, vehicle owners face financial risks from weather events like hail. While mandatory third-party liability insurance does not cover such damage, comprehensive insurance may, depending on specific policy terms and whether the vehicle was stored in a garage.
