But 600 kWh is about ~4k kg, no? Isn't that like the max hauling a sprinter can do? So doesn't this just get you a bunch of range at the "cost" of not being able to haul anything or am I missing something?

7000 kg is the maximum a van and its trailer can way by law in Europe. It can haul a lot more.

No, my eSprinter camper is a small room with kitchen, bed and shower. The trailer ways 3500 kg, the eSprinter 2670. I could haul at least 889 kilo more. If I had the bigger motor I could haul twice as much.
