How do diesel prices compare in non-US countries?[/QUOTE]

Here in Australia diesel is consistently higher than unleaded (gasoline) usually by about 6 to 10 cents per litre.

This has nothing to do with making the stuff either.
It is all down to taxation and other government charges.

Normally the costs for most diesel versions of the similar model are around 5 to 10 percent higher than their gasoline counterparts but it varies from maker to maker.

Cheers , Pete.
