- DabAsteroid 18y ago41 miles per gallon is still terrible ... Ford do rather better with the cars they sell in Europe We don't have to wonder why. European countries tend to have lax safety and smog-emission standards. If America had those same lax standards, ceteris peribus, fuel economy would be higher there. European countries also tend to have higher fuel prices. If America had those same high fuel prices, ceteris peribus, consumers there would select vehicles with higher fuel economy.
