US Federal, State and local taxes are a large component of the retail price of gasoline. Federal and state taxes (not including county and local taxes) account for approximately 27 percent of the cost of a gallon of gasoline. Also, eleven States levy additional State sales and other taxes, some of which are applied to the Federal and State excise taxes. Additional local county and city taxes can have a significant impact on the price of gasoline.

What's the average percentage of taxes per gallon/liter in Europe?
