Summary / Performance Table / Performance Chart

This page aims to put all of the performance metrics of Triumph's entire model range in one place, providing enthusiasts and prospective buyers with valuable insights into each vehicle's acceleration capabilities. We know that 0-60 times don't tell us the full performance picture, but by reviewing 0-60 mph times at least you can get a benchmark for measuring a car's acceleration prowess, and the quarter mile times, which offer a glimpse into its straight-line speed, readers can gain a deeper understanding of Triumph's performance pedigree. Triumph, historically known for its motorcycles, also produced a range of sports cars throughout the 20th century. While not as widely recognized as its two-wheeled counterparts, these vehicles embodied a similar spirit of performance and driving pleasure.

The Triumph TR series, spanning from the TR2 to the TR8, were among the brand's most iconic sports cars. These roadsters, with their sleek lines and open-top design, were celebrated for their agile handling and spirited performance. Models like the TR3 and TR4 offered a thrilling driving experience, thanks to their responsive engines and lightweight construction. Triumph's performance aspirations extended beyond roadsters. The TR7, a wedge-shaped sports car introduced in the 1970s, aimed to combine performance with modern styling. While it faced criticism for its unconventional design and reliability issues, its performance potential was undeniable, especially in its later turbocharged form.

The Triumph Stag, a grand tourer launched in the 1970s, represented the brand's foray into the luxury sports car market. With its V8 engine and comfortable interior, the Stag offered a blend of performance and refinement. However, it also suffered from reliability issues that hampered its success. Despite these challenges, Triumph's sports cars left a lasting impression on the automotive world. They embodied the brand's commitment to driving enjoyment, offering a unique blend of British charm, sporty handling, and respectable performance. Today, these classic Triumphs are sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate their timeless design and the spirit of driving pleasure they represent.
