Only 333 pieces are to be manufactured.
-In 1951, Triumph's management, based in Coventry, England, decided to build a successor to the popular Type 1800/2000 Roadster.
-Design manager Walter Belgrove designed the new design of the two-seater convertible with many features that were revolutionary at the time.
-The most eye-catching equipment was pop-up headlamps. When the light was off, two rectangular flaps covered the headlights, giving the front end a seamless look.
-When the light was turned on, the cover painted in the color of the vehicle was automatically shook and emitted a ray.
-Other features that may not be obvious at first glance include a hydraulic lifting jack built into the chassis, a hydraulically operated soft top mechanism, and an electrically adjustable seat. A standard car radio, which was rare at the time, was planned to be installed.
-Also, unlike other cars, the hood can be opened and closed both left and right, it can be removed, the bonnet can be unlocked from inside the car.
-Walter Belgrove combines the above-mentioned very sophisticated features into an elegant and simple body design. Both doors, the open soft top, were covered with special plates and the rear wheel covers were seamlessly attached to the car body.
-Mass production was scheduled to start in 1951, but Triumph TR-X will not be mass-produced due to lack of mutual management necessary for body production, lack of production capacity, and failure of outsourced production in 1951. Not really.
