If those numbers are try that is significantly better than most cars on the road. My hybrid does 5L/100km on the highway so on a solo trip the airplane is twice as fuel efficient. When I load up the family hauler it is 11 to 12L so for four people the airplane is still more fuel efficient. That is impressive.
