Your are partially right.
There are two aspects:
1. The difference of price between Diesel and Gasoline depends of the politics of the country. For example Spain, France, Germany and Italy subsidize Diesel, by tax reductions, and it’s therefore cheaper. In Switzerland Diesel is more expensive because it isn’t subsidized and the high demand.
2. Whatever the demand is, the fact remains that Diesel needs less energy to be produced.
