EssenceRadar is an independent French fuel-information service that helps drivers compare pump prices and track station availability. Its free, live map and daily shortage pages show where petrol and diesel are available or temporarily out of stock across France. Users can search by postcode, town or address, view nearby stations, and filter results by fuel type, including diesel, E10, SP98, SP95, E85 and LPG. The service’s station prices and shortage figures come from the official fuel-price feed of France’s Ministry of the Economy, with sources identified on station listings.

For €3.90 per month, the optional subscription adds email alerts when a followed station is restocked or a price falls below a chosen threshold. Subscribers can save up to five stations or a postcode area and access tools for finding the best-value fill nearby, including route mode and real-time on-the-ground reports. EssenceRadar also provides professional offers for businesses, fleets and media, including a map widget and fuel-price API.
