Can I use both 120v outlets at same time for 1500 watts?

The 12V outlets and USB-C are all DC. They're connected to your low voltage system and the 12V in the frunk. They also have power limitations but they're not related to your AC outlets.

any practical limitations on these 12V outlets? Like one should be able to connect a 1000W or 1500W inverter to them? or are these type of inverters meant to be connected directly to a 12V battery?

These are 12V cigarette lighter style outlets, and 12V USB-C outlets. I do not know the exact current limitations or what they're fused for, but I'd assume they're in neighborhood of 10A or less. You absolutely should NOT try to pull a kilowatt (over 83A) from a circuit like this.

The circuit is only as capable as its weakest component, and usually that component is the wiring. Do not exceed whatever the circuit is originally rated and fused for unless you love fire hazards.

Thanks, so in ICE offroad vehicles these types of inverters are usually clamped to the battery posts. But we also have a wimpy 12V Battery.

Anyone knows the specs for the 12V battery?
