I've noticed a similar range of around 5 liters (L) = 1.4 gallons of gas in my case, but I've got the GE (2nd gen) Fit if that makes any difference. And this is only a 'guesstimate' based on the specified volume of the gas tank (40 L) - in real world applications we should also account for the entire length of the gas filler pipe as well, not only the tank - which in the case of our Fits is quite a long pipe that stretches to the front seats and can add anywhere from 1-3 L extra.
Either way, as a general rule of thumb, the triggering of the gas light is never based on any accurate specific volume of gas leftover in the tank. Factors like temperature and hills will trigger the gas light to come on sooner or later than the average.
