Approximately, when the reserve light goes on, how big is that reserve (in liter, or gallon, or in approx distance km or miles).Thanks in advance.

When your gas light comes on. You usually have about 1-2 gallons left in the tank. So, if it gets real close to E and passes it. Better get some gas real soon.Inder Singh

Wow! That's a week's worth of reading material right there. I'm not sure if that would be a metric week or a US week, though. I've found that when my low fuel light comes on, I usually have only about 2 US gallons left. At about 25 miles per gallon, that's about a 50 mile range before she's just about drained. That is all given in US miles of course, lol!

The second day I had my Vibe, I drove from my house to work with the gas light on, which is approx. 40kms, I dunno how much that is in miles, but I was impressed. The things I'll do to get cheaper gas!
