As-is, I've towed 1000-1500lbs behind it (~100lbs tongue) with 2-300lbs of cargo in the hatch, myself, my wife, our sheltie and her mother's border collie in it. The car was sitting pretty low, but handling was still very good and braking was fine even going down some pretty steep mountains. I'm thinking pulling 350lbs of ICE and IMA related stuff out and replacing them with 6-700lbs of EV gear won't be a problem.
