US national average gasoline prices have surged to $4.02 per gallon for regular unleaded as of early April 2026—the highest since 2022—driven by a 35% monthly increase tied to Middle East supply disruptions from the escalating Iran conflict and crude oil topping $102 per barrel. Spring break travel demand and seasonal refinery maintenance have amplified the rally, with warmer weather boosting road trips ahead of peak summer driving season. Key factors include ongoing geopolitical tensions, potential further oil supply risks, and EIA projections for Brent crude remaining above $95/bbl through May. Traders eye late-month demand spikes and any de-escalation signals that could temper prices before end-of-April resolution based on AAA weekly averages.
