31 mpg for a 2010 4-cylinder 2010 car. Thats terrible. The US could do with
catching up with the rest of the world in this area.

Remember that their gallons are smaller than real gallons.  But even
so, you are right.

US Gallon = 4 quarts
Imperial Gallon = 5 quarts
Mileage in Imperial Gallons = 38.75
How does that contrast with current european[real world] mileage?

Not quite (for the Imperial gallon). It's 1 Imperial Gallon = 4
Imperial Quarts = 4.8 US Quarts
