The Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público is keeping diesel at a zero rate of the Impuesto Especial sobre Producción y Servicios for the week of October 31 to November 6, 2026, with savings of 7.36 pesos per liter, Expansión reported on October 30. It is the eighth consecutive week with this 100% stimulus.
Diesel powers much of Mexico's freight transport and intercity passenger buses. For a tractor-trailer covering 8,000 kilometers a month at 2.5 kilometers per liter, that savings comes to roughly 23,500 pesos in a single week. That is why every time Hacienda sets the weekly rate, it also lands close to home for ground logistics costs and, in turn, the price of goods arriving at street markets, pharmacies and supermarkets.
According to the rates published and reported by Energía a Debate, the diesel support was extended throughout October. Magna gasoline, by contrast, pays 3.78 pesos per liter this week, a 43.56% discount; Premium pays 3.08 pesos, with 45.45% support. Expansión reports 3.09 pesos for Premium.
The contrast matters for anyone driving a delivery truck, a tanker or a long-haul bus. Hacienda adjusts the rate each week based on international crude prices and the exchange rate.
At the pump, on Friday, October 30, Magna averaged 23.69 pesos per liter nationwide, Premium 28.59 and diesel 26.99, within the term of the agreement between authorities and fuel retailers to keep Magna below 24 pesos.
The next rate will be announced in the Diario Oficial de la Federación before Friday, November 6, along with the prices under the agreement. That is where it will become clear whether the eight-week streak continues.
