Reply to comment by Tato7069 in TIL There is not just a price difference, but also a chemical difference between gasoline in the summer and gasoline in the winter. by cmsgtcote

Because crude oil is a global commodity. Since Europe cannot buy Russian crude oil anymore they are buying US, Canadian and South American crude oil which makes it more expensive for the US refiners to buy their crude oil. Supply and demand. Send the crude oil is more expensive for the US refiners the final products, gasoline diesel jet etc are also more expensive.
