No news yet on a Euro NCAP crash test score, but Nissan predicts that the C+C will perform at least as well as its rivals. With the roof up, the hard top will offer a lot more protection in the event of an accident than a traditional canvas hood. Roof down, it doesn't have spring-up rollover hoops like some rivals, but you wouldn't really want to turn turtle in any open-top anyway…
ABS anti-lock brakes with EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution) are standard, along with four airbags, active whiplash-reducing headrests and Isofix child seat mounting points. ESP (electronic stability programme) is fitted to the range-topping 1.6 Essenza version.
Security-wise, a hard roof has to give better thief-proofing than a fabric hood and there's the usual remote control central locking and immobiliser. Under the passenger seat is a "hidden" lockable compartment large enough for items such as cameras.
