12v outlet at the rear or trunk?

Sorry guys, silly question. Does the car have a 12v power outlet at the rear or inside the trunk? Thanks

Yes my 2017 OG M2 has a outlet in the trunk.

But what would one do with it?

That's incorrect, we do have a 12v outlet in the trunk.

Well for starters you could plug in your air pump when you get a flat (It's located under the trunk mat by the battery).

You can also add a power inverter to convert DC to AC current, for a portable power cooler or whatever in the trunk. Comes in handy on road trips..

Thanks for correct me since we don't have this option in my region. Good to know.

Or you could use it as God intended, for a cigarette lighter next time you're hanging out in the trunk.
Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
