AMG won't use runflats. So even if it didn't have a spare, you'd get the fix a flat kit. But the guide didn't specify any differences in the B&O config for the USA so I'd still assume it's the separate spare on the floor of the trunk (that's removable).

'14 E63S, '13 G550, '06 E320 cdi, and a bunch of other stuff.
What bump?

The floor of the trunk in my car is flat.

Interesting. I have a US spec 14 non B&O (love the sound of the one in my Audi, but I need the trunk space) with no bump in the trunk. It was a European delivery, but I doubt that would have an impact.

Thanks for the pic. How much room does the B and O take from the top of the trunk?

I wonder if the hump in the trunk is a function of having folding rear seats? For those of you that don't have the hump, do you have folding seats?

Just a few inches from the top. it doesn't go all the way back either, if you look here you can see where it stops, but just before where the 'hump' starts

I stand corrected. I took another look at the trunk of my mother's W212 E350 RWD and there is indeed a small hump in the back of the trunk. Obviously her car does not have B and O. So B and O does not cause that hump.

My mother's trunk has the Comfort Box. That option also reduces trunk space on top as it hangs from the top. I wonder if B and O consumes any more space from the top than the comfort box.

I'm pretty sure the hump is there to make room for the rear axle.

I bet the comfort box would be pretty close to the same space as the B&O.

It looks like it takes up about the same amount of space as the B&O. Definitely makes the trunk smaller.
