2026 predicted to be cheapest for gas in years

  • January 6, 2026

(CNN) – Drivers have at least one reason to be happy in the new year.

GasBuddy predicts the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline will be $2.97 in 2026.

That would be the first year below $3 since 2020.

It would also mark four straight years of falling prices.

GasBuddy is making the prediction despite ongoing uncertainty in oil-rich Venezuela.
