Apple Valley Pump Listings Show Gas Below Minnesota Average; Diesel Differs

Regular-gas listings cited in Apple Valley are below the latest Minnesota average, while diesel is moving differently. The listings reviewed for July 31, 2026, show regular gasoline at $3.80 per gallon at a Kwik Trip at 13357 Palomino Drive and $3.95 at the Speedway at 15050 Galaxie Ave.

The Speedway page also lists estimated diesel at $4.99 per gallon. That is an estimated station listing, not a confirmed Apple Valley citywide diesel average. The two local listings are individual station observations and do not represent every pump in the city.

Regular gas is easing

AAA’s Minnesota price table dated July 31, 2026, lists regular gasoline at a statewide average of $3.975 per gallon. The average was down 1.3 cents from the previous day and 7.7 cents from the previous week.

The cited $3.80 Apple Valley listing is 17.5 cents below that Minnesota benchmark, while the $3.95 Speedway listing is 2.5 cents below it. The comparison provides context, but it is not an apples-to-apples comparison with an official Apple Valley average. AAA’s Minneapolis-St. Paul figures are also broader comparison data, not Apple Valley pump prices.

Diesel is moving differently

AAA lists Minnesota diesel at $5.068 per gallon on July 31. That average fell 0.4 cents from the previous day but was 5.6 cents higher than the prior week.

The estimated $4.99 Speedway diesel listing is below the statewide benchmark, but drivers should check the posted price at the pump before filling up. Diesel costs can matter more directly for contractors, landscapers, delivery operators, fleets and service businesses that use heavier vehicles or equipment.

What the spread may mean locally

For Apple Valley commuters and households, the difference between the two cited regular-gas listings is 15 cents per gallon. A 15-gallon fill-up would cost $2.25 more at the higher listing, before any station updates.

A lower gasoline listing can modestly reduce the cost of routine driving and weekend travel. Diesel’s higher Minnesota weekly average may remain a cost concern for delivery, repair, construction, restaurant-supply and other service operations, even when an individual Apple Valley listing is below the statewide figure. Those are practical implications of the price data, not documented claims about specific Apple Valley businesses.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration’s Minnesota weekly data, released July 28, 2026, provides separate federal trend context. AAA supplies the dated daily and weekly comparisons used here. Neither source establishes a citywide Apple Valley average.
