Arizona drivers paid 13 cents less per gallon for regular gas this week. The statewide average dropped to $4.32 as of November 6, according to AAA data compiled by Stacker.

The decline follows a monthly spike. While the current price is down 2.8% from last week, it remains $0.96 higher than the price recorded one year ago.

Diesel costs also eased. The average price for diesel fell 7 cents to $6.25 per gallon. That figure is up 69.9% from this time last year, when it stood at $3.68.

Regional differences remain stark within the state. Prescott recorded the highest average price at $4.62, followed closely by Lake Havasu-Kingman at $4.60. In contrast, Tucson drivers saw the lowest statewide average at $4.02.

Arizona ranks mid-tier nationally on price. The state sits above the five cheapest states, led by North Carolina at $3.32 and Texas at $3.55. It trails only California, Hawaii, Nevada, Washington, and Oregon, where the average price reaches $5.80.

The state’s all-time high for regular gas was $5.39 on June 17, 2022. Diesel hit its peak record of $6.45 on September 22, 2026.
