Gas prices remained stable throughout most of the state, according to the AAA Hawaii Weekend Gas Watch. Today’s statewide average price is $3.06, which is one cent more than last Thursday, one cent lower than a month ago, and 45 cents higher than on this date a year ago, according to GasPrices.AAA.com

 

In Honolulu, today’s average price is $2.91, which is unchanged since last Thursday, one cent less than on this date last month and 50 cents higher than last year.  The Hilo average price is $3.05, which is up three cents since last week, the same price on this date last month and 41 cents higher than on this date a year ago.  Wailuku’s average is $3.50, which is the same price as last Thursday, unchanged since on this date a month ago and 29 cents higher than on this date a year ago.

 

“Compared to this time last year, four West Coast states are experiencing some of the country’s biggest year-over-year price jumps: Alaska, (+62 cents), Washington, (+59 cents), Oregon, (+56 cents), and Hawaii, (+45 cents),” said AAA Hawaii General Manager Liane Sumida.  “That’s why it’s so important for motorists to keep up on routine car maintenance, plan their errands and drive in a smooth and gentle manner to get the best gas mileage for the least impact on their family budgets.”

 

Motorists can find current prices along their route with the free AAA Mobile app for iPhone, iPad and Android, available at AAA.com/mobile. The app also can be used by AAA members to map a trip, find discounts, book a AAA-rated hotel and access AAA roadside assistance.
