yes it is a bit low.
sometimes i can get the van to idle down to less than 100rpm even though its clearly idling at normal speed. check your idle speed with another source. |

My EB seems to idle around the 400rpm mark in gear. Strange, but like you, I've never had any issues with a rough idle, or it cutting or spluttering out.
