Production of the Triumph TR6 began in January 1969 as the successor to the TR5/TR250 series. Some chassis and suspension components from the successful predecessor series were adopted. The design of the new English roadster did not originate from the Italian automobile designer Giovanni Michelotti, but the German bodywork factory Karmann in Osnabrück took over the exterior design of the body. Design elements from its predecessors were also retained. The smooth lines of the bodywork, the modified rear design with the enlarged trunk and the wider wheels make the Roadster look flatter and faster. With a top speed of over 190 km/h, the powerful 2.5-liter 6-cylinder in-line engine with 105 kW/143 hp also made its contribution. During its production period, which ended in July 1976, several modifications were made. This also affected the gearbox, which was replaced by the Triumph Stag unit from around mid-1971. The functional equipment, the comfortable seats and the clearly designed dashboard are popular features of the TR6. It embodies the appeal of a British roadster and is still an extremely popular sports car today. Its successor, the TR7, is a completely new model.
