Here in Europe roughly 50% of all cars run on diesel.

A car with a diesel engine is quite a bit more expensive to buy (and diesel fuel is only a bit cheaper than gas), but you make up for it with the mileage/fuel economy.

Most european country's have 'invented' all kinds of tax brackets according to fuel economy/pollution, which has massive effects on the price of cars.

As a result, cars with big engines and terrible fuel economy have become extremely expensive :-(

For instance, a new Cadillac CTS-V will cost you 150.000 euro, where 70.000 of it is purely taxes because it's not so fuel efficient.
