The diesel left-hand-drive European Peugeot 208 was tested by Euro NCAP. Euro NCAP was provided with data that showed the crash test results also apply to the 2008, which is built on the same platform.
The Peugeot 2008 was introduced in Australia and New Zealand in 2013. This ANCAP safety rating applies to all variants. Dual frontal, side chest and side head airbags (curtains) are standard. Antilock brakes (ABS), electronic brake distribution (EBD) and electronic stability control (ESC) are also standard. Advanced seat belt reminders are fitted to both front seats.
5 stars. In the frontal offset crash test, driver chest and leg protection were acceptable. Passenger chest protection was also acceptable. In the side impact crash test driver chest protection was acceptable. Head protection in the side pole test was good.
