No way is 500w enough to drive a 5/8 drill through a block of steel -
but you possibly don't want that.

It is if you take it in steps.

I'd hardly describe it as a toy drill. Just how many ever need to drill
such a large hole in a block of steel anyway?

Of course it could be bettered. But the cost goes up dramatically for a
small gain. Economy of production scale. This sort of spec drill is the
most common by far.
