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).

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.
