Fuel prices in western Europe have always been a lot more expensive than in the US so Europeans have always saved on fuel, driven fuel efficient card, opened a window instead of using AC and so on but if th fuel prices in Europe had been the same as in the US you would have seen the same mass consumption of fuel.
