Germany Consumer Price Index (1960–2025)

Overview

Germany's consumer price index stood at 141.88 in 2025, a rise of +7.01 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 141.88 by 2025. Germany ranked 129th globally.

Germany’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose from a low of 24.65 in 1960 to an all‑time high of 141.88 in 2025, reflecting a 474 percent increase over 66 years. The latest figure places Germany at rank 129 globally, just below Jordan’s 141.80 and marginally above Gabon’s 141.60, underscoring that the German price environment now parallels that of middle‑income economies despite its advanced‑economy status. The steep ascent accelerated after the early 2020s, when pandemic‑related supply chain disruptions and energy price shocks amplified inflationary pressures, pushing the index to its peak in 2025. By contrast, the 1960 trough coincided with a period of post‑war reconstruction and relatively subdued demand. Looking ahead, the trajectory will depend on the European Central Bank’s monetary stance and the pace of energy market stabilization; a sustained easing of inflation could modestly temper further CPI growth.
