Overview
Austria's consumer price index stood at 157.04 in 2025, a rise of +8.86 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 157.04 by 2025. Austria ranked 96th globally.
Austria’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose to 157.04 in 2025, placing the country 96th in the global ranking and marking an all‑time peak that matches the series’ highest observation since the index was first recorded in 1960 at 17.82. Over the 66‑year coverage period the CPI has increased nearly ninefold, reflecting sustained inflationary pressure that intensified during the post‑pandemic recovery and energy price shocks of the early 2020s. Compared with peer economies of similar rank, Austria’s CPI is slightly below Chad’s 160.58 and above Kosovo’s 155.72, suggesting that while price growth remains robust, it is not as extreme as in some higher‑ranked nations. The long‑term upward trajectory is likely to persist unless decisive monetary tightening or structural supply‑side reforms curtail inflation, which could moderate the index’s ascent in the coming years.
