Triumph
Vitesse
1962-1971
In mei 1962 kwam de Triumph Vitesse op de markt. Het was feitelijk de zescilinder versie van de Triumph Herald die in 1959 werd geïntroduceerd. Het verschil zit ‘m met name in het ontwerp van de voorkant. Met een productie van ruim 51.000 exemplaren was het voor het bescheiden Triumph een commercieel succes.

In October 1968 the Vitesse Mk 2 was launched as the final update to the Vitesse range. Technical improvements included a revised rear suspension. The exterior featured a new grille with three sets of horizontal elements that were also used in the Herald 13/60. The interior was upgraded once more in order to share parts with the new Herald 13/60, though the Vitesse included a tachometer. The Vitesse continued to sell well until its discontinuation in July 1971, seven months before being replaced by the Triumph Dolomite.
