One mile is equal to 1.609 kilometers and the are more miles than kilometers, therefore the American car gets better mileage.

One Mile = 1.60934 kilometers 
One gallon = 3.78541 liters 

So 32* 1.60934 = 51.499 kilometers

51.499km/3.78541 liters = 13.6 km/liter

So the American can gets better mileage.
