That's because Europe has very high taxes on gasoline making it artificially expensive. The US has similar taxes, but not to the extent most European nations do. This is largely because the US can and does produce a lot of its oil natively (more so than Europe can), so has less need to try to limit usage in an effort to reduce trade deficits a bit with OPEC nations et all.
