welcome to the forum. 330km = 205.05 miles. 1km=0.062137119. but gallons used unknown. still hard to determine, but appears to be poor milage, depending on how the vehicle is driven.

basic maintenance like plugs,air filter,oil you can use 0w20 in a 2006 that would give better mpg. also change out your primary oxygen sensor those get dirty and give bad gas mileage. maybe add some fuel system cleaner i recommend AMSOIL if you can find it. check tire pressure run it on the higher side.
