ANCAP has released its latest safety rating for the Peugeot Partner van.
The Peugeot Partner van fell short of five-stars, scoring four due to scoring 58% for vulnerable road user protection. The van was assessed based on test results of its platform twin, the Peugeot Rifter.
However, it scored 90% on adult occupant protection.
“Overall performance of the Peugeot’s autonomous emergency braking system was rated as ‘marginal’ with the system unable to respond to cyclists,” Goodwin adds.
“Light commercial vans will often spend more time and cover more kilometres on our roads, particularly in busy metropolitan areas so it is disappointing to see this model score poorly for its ability to protect pedestrians and cyclists.”
Four-stars applies to both the 1.2L petrol and 1.6L diesel Peugeot Partner vans.
