2012 Peugeot 207 CC adds more features, price unchanged

With the MY12 update, the Peugeot 207 CC gets a restyled front lion badge, black accents inside and out, new 16-inch alloy wheels, and 'Boyington' trim highlights inside.

The model update also comes with USB and Bluetooth compatibility for the stereo and hands-free connectivity, while leather seats are also fitted standard.

The Peugeot 207 CC convertible competes in the compact convertible market, targeting rivals such as the Renault Megane CC. It comes with a 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine producing 88kW and 160Nm.

The top-spec Sport variant, with its turbocharged engine, is no longer available, leaving only the base model. It's available with a four-speed automatic transmission and five-speed manual.

Features from the current model will be carried over, including the electric automatic folding steel roof, electronic stability control, four airbags, and brake assist. It also offers 187 litres of boot space, or 449 litres when the rear seats are folded down.

The update is considered to be a final call for the 207's production run, as the new Peugeot 208 will be its replacement when it arrives in September.
