LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Nevada is experiencing lower gas prices — but still sits higher than the national average when it comes to fueling up.
The latest from Thursday, Dec. 4, 2025
According to AAA, gas prices have lowered to under $3 nationwide for the first time in four years. Nevada, however, is seeing fuel prices ringing in at $3.59 in Las Vegas, and $3.71 in Reno as of Dec. 11.
Though these prices are on the higher side, they're better than before for the state. On Dec. 4, AAA totaled the price of gas at $3.73 in Las Vegas, and $3.80 in Reno.
In AAA's update, they shared that Nevada now weighs in as the 6th most expensive gasoline market in America, with California at number one.
The reason for the national decrease? AAA learned from the Energy Information Administration (EIA) that the demand for gasoline decreased "from 8.72 b/d last week to 8.32 million." Crude oil prices also contribute to the low figures, coming in at around $60 per barrel, AAA shared.
Nevada seems to have eked out a win with EV charging, though — with the national average (per kilowatt hour of electricity) at public charging stations staying at 38 cents, and Nevada totaling at 37 cents, AAA said.
