CC Overview:
Peugeot 206 (CC). With 147 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. It has moderate fuel consumption (~9.5 l/100km). Weighing only 1215 kg, it’s quite light. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 11.2 s). The top speed reaches 185 km/h. A convertible with a retractable hardtop, offering the benefits of both coupe and cabriolet. Seating for 4 makes it ideal for daily use.
The Peugeot 206 CC itself was not specifically tested by Euro NCAP. The standard 206 hatchback received a 4-star rating in 2000, which provides some context, but structural differences in the convertible may impact its specific safety performance.
