In vacuum conditions, it can push a grand piano up to 60mph in 5 seconds flat.  That is not under-powered.  Your spacecraft are just huge.

Mine don't even weigh much at all. Actually the Dawn Engine can't even lift itself up in the atmosphere.

Why are you trying to use an ion engine in atmosphere?  That's like trying to use a jet engine in space.  It just doesn't work.
