Located just behind the rear seats, the two small chrome roll over bars add to the dynamic style of Peugeot 207 CC but also serve as a discreet form of protection. When a critical "roll over" situation is detected by the ECU, which analyses information from an angle sensor and the speed of rotation, it instructs the trigger system to release the springs that hold down the roll over bars in less than 25 ms. The roll over bars are then deployed in 175 ms to a height of 200 mm.

The above is combined with reinforced A posts, strengthened by securely located internal reinforcing tubes.


Means of restraint

Peugeot 207 CC is equipped with four inertia reel 3-point seat belts and force limiters, combined with visual and audible fasten-seat-belt indicators.

The front seat belt pretension system is triggered automatically at the same time as the active roll over bars.

Five air bags, three of which are specific to this body shape and its particular driving position, are available to protect the occupants:

- two adaptive front airbags;
- two "head-chest" side air bags located on the outer edge of the seat backs;
- a steering column air bag designed to protect the driver's lower limbs.

For child safety, the front passenger seat of the Peugeot 207 CC is equipped with a 3-point Isofix attachment system.


Inside the car

The special architecture of Peugeot 207 CC creates a passenger compartment length of 1501 mm, despite the integration of the new safety features, in particular the rollover protection system.


Front passengers

Peugeot 207 CC offers sport seats which allow a driving position lower than that of the hatchback, thereby meeting the expectations of coupe-cabriolet users.


The rear seats

A real 2 + 2, the 207 CC offers additional features compared to a strict twoseater, which set it apart and widen its potential customer base.

Controls ideally situated in the upper part of the front seat backs provide access to the rear passenger seats.


A boot ... ideal for luggage

To get the very most from the "cabriolet" configuration even when parked, the boot's contents is protected by a permanent locking feature, intelligently designed to also be easy to use. This ensures the boot can only be opened with the key.

With its regular cube-like shape, the boot of Peugeot 207 CC accommodates the spare wheel and also offers a volume (VDA) of 370 dm3 (449 litres of water) in the coupe configuration, and 145 dm3 (187 litres of water) in the cabriolet configuration, under the load space cover blind which separates the area for luggage, from the area needed to accommodate the folded roof.
