Zusammenfassung:In an example of a method for providing a vehicle with fuel purchasing options, vehicle data and a request for a fuel price is received at a server from a vehicle communications platform disposed in the vehicle. The vehicle data includes a vehicle identifier and a current location of the vehicle. A plurality of fuel retailers within a preset deviation around the current location of the vehicle are identified, where the preset deviation is associated with a distance that is drivable by the vehicle based on a current fuel level of the vehicle. Offers from the plurality of fuel retailers are determined based on a respective travel time to each of the fuel retailers and an amount of fuel needed by the vehicle. The offers are valid for a set period of time. The offers are transmitted to the vehicle communications platform.
