Magna, up 8.2% to 8.44 pesos/liter = $2.51 per gallon (peso at 12.72 per U.S. dollar on 14 August 2010)

Premium, up 3.9% to 9.94 pesos/liter = $2.96 per gallon

Diesel, up 7.8% to 8.80 pesos/liter = $2.62 per gallon

divide 3.785 (liters) by today’s peso exchange rate (example: 12.72) and multiply this by the current price-per-liter (example: 8.44 pesos for Magna) to get:  $2.51 per gallon.

In other words: 3.785 divided by peso rate, then multiplied by price per liter.

Here’s another method, excerpted from the Driving chapter in the 13th edition of our book, The People’s Guide To Mexico.
