October 10, 2025 - WASHINGTON, DC – As autumn sets in, the national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline has dropped to $3.11, down from last week. According to the Energy Information Administration, demand for gasoline has fallen to a four-month low, contributing to the continued decline in pump prices. With the third quarter of 2025 ending in higher gasoline inventories and the seasonal transition from summer-grade to winter-grade fuel, consumers are likely to see even lower prices at the pump in the coming weeks.
Today’s National Average: $3.110
