据美国汽车协会(AAA)数据,美国周一汽油平均零售价首次突破每加仑4美元大关,为三年多来首次,这表明伊朗局势冲突正在推高美国驾车族的燃油成本。AAA称,当前均价为每加仑4.018美元,周日时为3.990美元。
美国汽车协会的数据显示,自2月28日美国与以色列袭击伊朗以来,汽油价格已飙升逾每加仑1美元,过去一个月涨幅显著。
特朗普总统暗示这场冲突可能很快结束。巴基斯坦方面表示将在“未来几天”主持美国与伊朗之间的和谈,这或是局势出现进展的潜在信号。
与此同时,美国已向中东增派特种作战部队,特朗普如今再次威胁称,如果无法达成协议,将打击伊朗发电厂及其他民用基础设施。特朗普政府上周表示,已向伊朗提交了一份包含15项内容的和平提议。
在这种不确定的背景下,美国汽油价格在连续数日徘徊在该关口下方后,终于突破了4美元。
美国上一次汽油价格突破每加仑4美元是在2022年8月。当年6月,受俄罗斯入侵乌克兰推动原油价格飙升影响,汽油价格曾短暂触及每加仑5美元以上。
“虽然没有出现5美元的天价,但驾车族很快就会明显看到加油站的油价数字在上涨,”GasBuddy石油专家帕特里克·德哈恩对CBS新闻表示。
据德哈恩统计,自2009年以来,全美汽油均价仅在2022年有157天维持在每加仑4美元以上。
3月22日发布的一项CBS新闻民调显示,不断上涨的汽油价格正在加剧人们对美国经济的担忧。短期来看,90%的受访者认为伊朗局势冲突会推高油气价格,58%的人认为燃油成本长期内也可能上涨。
这项于3月17日至20日对3335名美国成年人进行的民调还显示,85%的受访者表示所在地区的油价已经上涨,驾车族切实感受到了当地的涨价影响。
周一柴油价格也出现上涨,达到每加仑5.454美元,周日为5.416美元。柴油常用于农业、建筑业,以及运输美国货物的卡车、火车和船只。
毕马威首席经济学家黛安·斯旺克近期对CBS新闻表示,随着能源价格上涨推高运输成本,企业最终可能会将部分成本转嫁给消费者。
特朗普政府已采取多种举措试图抑制能源价格,例如释放战略石油储备,以及放宽可能推高石油产品成本的政府监管规定。
但分析师对CBS新闻表示,仅靠这些措施不足以填补能源供应缺口,也无法缓解美国民众面临的油价上涨压力。

Gas in U.S. hits $4 a gallon for first time since August 2022
March 31, 2026 / 3:48 AM EDT / CBS News
The average U.S. price of a gallon of gasoline rose above $4 a gallon Monday for the first time in more than three years, according to AAA, the latest sign of how the Iran war is driving up fuel costs for U.S. motorists. The average price was $4.018 a gallon, AAA said, up from $3.990 on Sunday.
Gas prices have surged since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on February 28, jumping more than a dollar per gallon over the last month, data from the auto club shows.
President Trump has suggested the war could end soon. In a potential sign of progress, Pakistan indicated it would host talks between the U.S. and Iran in the “coming days.”
At the same time, the U.S. has expanded its special operations forces in the Middle East and Mr. Trump is now renewing threats to strike Iranian power plants and other civilian infrastructure if a deal is not reached. The Trump administration said it presented a 15-point peace proposal to Iran last week.
Amid that uncertain backdrop, U.S. gas prices finally broke past $4 after remaining just below that threshold for several days straight.
The last time gas was above $4 per gallon was in August 2022. Prices briefly topped $5 per gallon in June of that year after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine sent crude oil prices surging.
“It’s not the shock of $5, but motorists are really going to start to see those digits go up on the dollar price on the pump relatively quickly,” Patrick De Haan, a petroleum expert at GasBuddy, told CBS News.
Since 2009, gasoline has only spent 157 days — all in the year 2022 — above $4 a gallon, according to De Haan.
A CBS News poll released on March 22 found that rising gas prices are heightening concerns about the U.S. economy. In the short term, 90% of respondents expect the Iran war to drive up oil and gas prices, while 58% said fuel costs were likely to increase over the long term.
Drivers are also noticing the local impact, with 85% reporting higher prices in their area, according to the poll of 3,335 U.S. adults interviewed from March 17-20.
Diesel prices also rose on Monday, reaching $5.454 a gallon, compared to Sunday’s $5.416. The fuel is commonly used in farming and construction, as well as in trucks, trains and boats that transport American goods.
As transportation costs increase due to higher energy prices, companies could eventually shift part of the burden onto customers, Diane Swonk, chief economist at KPMG, recently told CBS News.
The Trump administration has pulled multiple levers in an effort to tame energy prices, such as releasing oil from its strategic reserve and relaxing government regulations that can push up the cost of petroleum products.
Analysts, however, told CBS News that those measures alone aren’t enough to fill the energy supply gap or ease prices for Americans.
