How to find the cheapest gas in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté?
Dijon and Besançon have the best supermarket deals. On the A6 (Paris-Lyon) and A31 (Lorraine-Bourgogne) highways, service areas charge some of the highest prices in France. Exiting the highway to fill up at a supermarket often saves 15 to 20 cents per liter. Being close to Switzerland makes border-area fuel prices uncompetitive.
The Je Carbure Malin app locates every station around you in real time and ranks them by price. Free on iOS and Android, it uses official data from the French Ministry of Economy, updated several times a day.
Which fuel should you choose in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté?
The Jura and Côte-d'Or produce a lot of grain, so E85 is well established in urban areas. This is one of the regions where bioethanol is a genuinely attractive alternative.
In general: diesel remains cost-effective on long trips thanks to its better energy efficiency. SP95-E10 suits almost all vehicles made since 2000 and is cheaper than regular SP95. E85 is the cheapest fuel per liter — but it burns faster, which cuts the real-world savings to about 20-30% depending on the vehicle.
