Yes this is true but they came with runflat tyres on wheels 16" and bigger. There was an option the have a space saver fitted but not many had it. The kit is still available.
They give you a bottle of gunge to put in if they arent fitted with runflats and you have no spare, that fluid freezes in winter so thats no use either, and it has a use by date too or the flavour goes off I suppose, obviously designed by someone thats never had to use the stuff when its minus 20.
Lots of cars dont have a spare these days as standard, all to do with weight saving they will tell you, but its actually to save them a few bob on the build.
