The Triumph TR6 (1968–76) was a built by British Triumph Motor Company between 1968 and 1976. It was the best-seller of the TR range when production ended, a record subsequently surpassed by the TR7. Of the 94,619 TR6s produced, 86,249 were exported; only 8,370 were sold in the UK.[4]
The bodywork was generally similar to the TR4/TR5,[5] but the front and back ends were squared off, reportedly based on a consultancy contract involving Karmann.
All TR6s were powered by Triumph’s 2.5-litre straight-6, carburetted for the United States, as had been the US-only TR250.
The TR6 featured a four-speed manual transmission. An optional electrically switched overdrive operated on second, third, and fourth gears on early models and third and fourth on later ones. Construction was traditional frame. Other features included semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering, 15-inch (380 mm) wheels and tires, pile carpet on floors and trunk/boot, bucket seats, and full instrumentation. Brakes were discs at the front and drums at the rear.
