No, it's because most of us in Europe don't want automatics.

Most cars can be had with an auto tranny, though not always with all engines.
The options are there, we just don't take them up.
One of the reasons is their higher fuel consumption.

The DSG could change that though, because for the first time, an auto transmission works as well as a manual.
If not better.
