The other two keys were more difficult to crack, but they did eventually become broken. The Immobilizer Chip A chipped key (often known as a Smart Key) has an RFID micro-chip inside it that communicates a passcode to the car's immobilizer system. If the code on the chip is identical to the system of the car the car will begin to move. This is an important anti-theft device that blocks car thieves from hotwiring the immobilizer or bypassing it in any other way. If the immobilizer fails to recognize the key the engine won't turn on even if someone attempts to short-circuit ignition circuit. Modern cars are equipped with electronic Engine Immobilizer systems that use rolling or changing security codes.

Peugeot was in a tough spot when the 206 was introduced in 1999, coming from superminis such as the Ford Fiesta or Volkswagen Polo. Peugeot's unique strategy for the 206 was that it wouldn't directly replace the 205, instead it was designed to be a bridge between the smaller Peugeot 106 and the larger 306 range. This was to ensure that lower models of the 306 and 106 might take sales away from the higher quality 205s. The 206 model range includes two doors: a hatchback, a coupe cabriolet, and a station wagon known as the 206 CC and 206 SW respectively. There was also a WRC homologated version of the 206 dubbed the 207 GTi, which did 0-100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and reached the top speed of 210 km/h.
