On April 25, 2026, the national average gas price in the United States rose to $4.086 per gallon, up from $4.059 the previous day, according to the American Automobile Association (AAA). This increase comes despite a recent drop in crude oil prices, which fell below $100 per barrel, allowing some relief for consumers. However, the ongoing instability in the Strait of Hormuz raises concerns about the sustainability of this trend. Regionally, California reports the highest prices, with regular fuel at $5.921, while Texas offers the lowest at $3.661. Florida and Pennsylvania show mid-range prices, while New York's prices are slightly higher than Pennsylvania's.
