Tennessee gas prices third lowest in nation

For the second week in a row, the Tennessee Gas Price average is $2.70, that’s four cents less than a month ago and $0.33 cents less than this time last year. Tennessee now has the third lowest state average- behind Mississippi ($2.63) and Oklahoma ($2.69).  

“Tennessee’s average gas price is holding steady again this week with unseasonably low gas prices,” said Stephanie Milani, public affairs director, AAA — The Auto Club Group. “Demand for gasoline is helping to keep gas prices low to begin the summer driving season. It’s giving those who are traveling a nice savings in their road trip budget.”

National Gas Prices

The summer driving season is underway, and while gas prices normally peak this time of year, drivers are getting a reprieve. The national average for a gallon of regular is $3.12, down two cents from last week. Pump prices are 36 cents cheaper than last June, thanks to this year’s consistently low crude oil prices. June gas prices haven’t been this low since 2021.
