Obviously, the armoring and extra features adds extra weight to the G-Class, but we're not talking 100kg or 200kg - it's a whopping 1,000kg! Brabus has modified its chassis by reinforcing the springs, stabilizers and shock absorbers, frame reinforcements, upgrading braking system, wheels with increased load-bearing capacity, and a special run-flat tyre system.
