In the case of gas stations, apart from seeing other elements such as the hours or the attendance of the service station, the novelty lies in being able see fuel prices at each gas station of the Spanish territory. This includes any type of fuel, as it shows what a liter costs for diesel, S95 gasoline and SP98 gasoline. However, Google Maps shows by default in the thumbnail and lists only the price of the SP95.

It should also be noted that it does not work with all service stations, as we have found some where the price of any fuel does not appear.
