GAS STATIONS IN SLOVENIA

Gas stations are ubiquitous in large cities and towns, and in the countryside you can find at least one gas station every 15 miles or so. They typically have later opening hours than many supermarkets, especially in the smaller towns, and like in the U.S. most gas stations also have convenience stores offering a variety of food and drink, including hot foods in many cases. Like in the United States, nearly every gas station takes credit cards, and you can pay at the pump or inside with the clerk. Gas stations are open until at least 9 p.m. in the cities, and ones situated close to highways are open 24 hours. You can also count on most gas stations to have bathrooms and ATMs.

You can buy the Vignette transponder pass at every gas station in Slovenia; if you are going to travel on the highway system in Slovenia, you MUST buy a Vignette. Your easiest bet is to buy a Vignette once you enter Slovenia at the first gas station you find. Check with your car rental company to see if a Vignette is included in the price of the rental.

Note: Gas prices in Slovenia are standardized nationwide, so unlike in the U.S., it doesn`t matter which station you go to, as you will get the same price for your gas anywhere. Gasoline is offered in 95 and 98 octane levels, as well as diesel.
