240W is also 20A in a 12V car which is definitely going to blow a fuse.

I mean there’s Welding setups that can be run off a car, but those require a lot of modification.
Most likely that persons minivan isn’t capable of more than 240W, but the engine would certainly capable of running a kettle. It just needs a bigger alternator/generator on it.
And the cars battery could also provide enough amps for a beefy inverter, at least for a while.
Who knows, maybe it was modified?
