This is the lowest energy consumption botton-freezer refrigerator in Energy Star: https://www.amazon.com/Avanti-FFBM102D0W-Bottom-Freezer-Refrigerator/dp/B013G786PO
It uses 370 kwh/year.
For the same price and size (narrower but taller) you get this in Europe: https://tiendas.mediamarkt.es/p/frigorifico-combi-balay-3kf6650mi-302-l-1367331#specifications
235 kwh/year.
So, basically, the most average fridge would have better energy efficiency than the most efficient Energy Star fridge in America. But, if you want to spend โฌ629 (about $750) you get a way larger fridge (12.5 ft3) that uses 183 kwh/year!!!!!

So basically what I say, it's not about mentality or anything. American appliances are designed worse and consume more electricity for no reason, because we have the technology and sometimes the brands are even the same (Samsung, for example).
