Gasoline in Hawai'i now costs a dollar more than it did a year ago, according to the latest Gas Watch report from AAA Hawaii.

AAA reported the statewide average for a gallon of unleaded regular was $4.418, a record. That compared to the year-earlier price of $3.416.

"The pricing situation remains very volatile," AAA Hawaii Regional Manager Richard Velzaquez said in a press statement.

Wailuku remains the highest-priced market tracked by AAA in the state at $4.62 a gallon.

Hawai'i has the third-highest price nationwide, with only California and Alaska motorists paying more.

The state boasts the highest diesel fuel price in the country at $5.317 a gallon after having risen $1.757 in the past year.
