Contrary to what people may think, all the German tanks ran on gasoline too. Maybach tank engines, including the HL230 engine in the Tiger I and other heavy tanks, were gasoline engines, not diesel.

Almost all Soviet tanks and sp guns were diesel powered. Even the 6,000 Shermans we sent them under lend-lease were equipped with diesel engines.
