The new Peugeot 207, available in the summer, has been awarded 5 stars by Euro-NCAP for occupant protection.
It also gets a 3 star rating for pedestrian protection and 4 star rating for child protection - the highest aggregate score so far achieved by a supermini. While a five star rating is now pretty well expected for occupant safety, three stars for pedestrian safety is probably as good as a car can currently score without using a pyrotechnic bonnet (like the new Jaguar XK8), which automatically lifts on impact to cushion pedestrians from the engine. That would be very expensive indeed for a supermini.
Safety equipment includes up to six airbags, anti-submarining seats, pre-tensioning seatbelts with force limiters and, Isofix mountings for child protection on the two outer rear seats.
