Hundred kilos wouldn't make that much of difference, for 850hp it should be wet faster even with that weight.

These Brabus guys need to be sued if they really didn't put 850hp while they're claiming it

Serves the lesson, proper maintenance is as important as the tunne itself.

There is a carwow dragrace video with a gle 63s from 8 month ago where it completed the 1/4 mile in 12.2 seconds. That's supposed to have 612 hp and 850nm of torque so the Brabus here isn't make the advertised horsepower for sure

Can’t have 850hp and 1,450Nm. The Mk8 Golf R does the 1/4 mile in 12.3 seconds, with 320hp and 420Nm (claimed). They dyno tested the Golf R on this channel and the results were 325hp and 478Nm. If that GLE850 really has those figures, it should not be slower than a hatchback that is down on power by 62% and down on torque by 68%. And these are crank figures. The weight difference between the Brabus and Volkswagen is not enough for the Volkswagen to overcome the power difference.
