It's reasonable, but you could probably do a bit better if you wanted to milk it by being extra diligent. Looking over my records (I'm at 26000km), I typically get about 800km for about the same amount of fuel from spring to fall, for winter it can get to as low as 650km when it's really cold.

After filling up, the range to empty is a quick and easy indicator of your general fuel consumption because it is averaged over a longer period then then "Tank Ave" display which is just the current tank. After fillup, right now mine is showing about 920km range. I expect it will start dropping now that the colder weather is knocking.

If I could rate myself from 1 to 10 (1 being drive the stink out of the car, 5 being casual driving, and 10 being conserving every ml of gasoline), I would rate myself usually 7 or 8 depending on the day.
