(WXYZ) — Gas prices in Michigan are down 20 cents compared to a week ago, AAA Michigan reports.

Drivers are now paying an average of $2.04 per gallon for regular unleaded, a new low in 2020.

Motorists are paying an average of $31 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline.

"If crude prices remain low, motorists will likely see continued relief at the pump during the run-up to spring as the world grapples with how to contain the global public health threat and financial risks associated with COVID-19," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA - The Auto Club Group.

Compared to last week, metro Detroit daily gas price decreased to $2.08 per gallon.
