Across the line

Diesel crosses the border, but the number does not. The Canadian side is published per litre and the American side per gallon.

Windsor · Canadian side253.6¢/L

Central Atlantic · the US district next door$6.508/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $6.508/gal this week — shown the way an American carrier reads it, with the Canadian-dollar equivalent beside it once the page loads. A gallon is not a litre, so these two lines measure the same fuel in different units and the cents will never match. What does compare is the market: a load crossing into Central Atlantic buys its fuel on the other side of a border.

Windsor runs 10.7¢ below the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Windsor prices

Windsor sits at the western terminus of Highway 401 and holds the Ambassador Bridge, the busiest crossing between Canada and the US. Auto manufacturing anchors the city's economy, keeping trucks hauling parts and finished vehicles across the border and along the 401. The Ambassador Bridge position ties Windsor to the border freight moving between Canada and the US, and the 401 terminus connects it to the main Ontario corridor. That combination of a border crossing and an auto manufacturing base is what shapes the local fuel market.
