Triumph-Renown
car
The Triumph Renown is a classic car that was produced by British automobile manufacturer, Triumph Motor Company, from 1949 to 1954. It was the company’s first post-war saloon car and was one of the first cars to feature an independent suspension system. The Renown was a medium-sized four-door saloon car that was powered by a 1.5 litre inline four-cylinder engine. It was available in two body styles, a four-door saloon and a two-door drophead coupe.
The Triumph Renown was designed by Walter Belgrove, who had previously designed some of the company’s pre-war models. The car featured a modern and stylish body with a low roofline and a large front grille. The interior was spacious and comfortable, with leather seats and plenty of legroom. The car also featured a four-speed manual transmission and a top speed of around 80 mph.
The Triumph Renown was an instant success and was well received by the public. It was praised for its good handling, comfortable ride, and reliable performance. The car was also popular with celebrities, including film stars and politicians. The car was also used in the James Bond film, From Russia with Love.
The Triumph Renown was produced for five years and over 18,000 units were sold. The car was available in various trim levels, including the Standard, De Luxe, Super, and Special. The De Luxe and Super models were the most popular, and featured additional chrome trim and a larger 1.8 litre engine.
The Triumph Renown was eventually replaced by the Triumph Mayflower in 1954. The Mayflower was a larger and more luxurious car, but it failed to capture the public’s imagination in the same way as the Renown had. The Renown was a popular car in its day and is still fondly remembered by classic car enthusiasts. It is a great example of British engineering and design, and is still a popular choice for collectors.
