Peugeot 308 was introduced in Australia during 2008. Euro NCAP initially tested a 308 with a driver knee airbag. Based on that test, ANCAP limited its 5-star rating to 308 models with a driver knee airbag. Subsequently Euro NCAP tested a 308 without a driver knee airbag and this revised ANCAP rating (5 stars) is based on that extra crash test.
The diesel left-hand-drive European model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page.
Dual front airbags, side airbags and head-protecting side curtains are standard equipment. A driver knee airbag has been available for some variants but this item does not affect the star rating. Antilock brakes (ABS), electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) and electronic stability control (ESC) are also standard. Intelligent seat belt reminders are fitted to both front seats. Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
