32 miles round trip would probably be reasonable for lots of commuters, especially in cities where you're not traveling a lot of distance but typically lots of time idling.. It's not too useful for my commute at 84 miles round trip per day, but I know *many* people that don't put anywhere near 32 miles per day on their car.

Using only 8HP to move the car at 60 MPH is very impressive... Heck my push lawn mower is 6HP just to give you an idea on the amount of power required. 27HP is about the same HP as a bigger riding lawn mower.
