Europe is to scared to war against Russia in real life, so what changed? Also, Europe's dependence on Russia for oil and other natural resources has probably increased more than it has declined, due to the population rising exponentially in Europe rather than stagnating. In addition, if European countries were to try and move towards non-oil based automobiles, it'd be almost literally impossible unless the government of said European state implemented laws that effectively stopped selling oil and only sold non-oil based automobiles, which is simply calling for revolution.
