The Triumph Scorpion was a small six-cylinder car built by the Triumph Motor Company from 1931 to 1933, and the Twelve/Six, built in 1932 and 1933, was the same car in a revised form. It grew out of the Super Seven: on a wheelbase only 140 mm longer it had about half as much power again, from a six-cylinder engine of 1,203 cc developed from the Super Seven unit, which ran more smoothly than a four-cylinder of similar output, and a saloon could reach 105 km/h. The Scorpion had a three-speed gearbox, four speeds in the Deluxe trim from 1932, Lockheed hydraulic brakes on all four wheels, a thermostat-controlled radiator blind and a Solex carburettor. Sales fell after a good start, so the body was redone in 1932, and the shorter Twelve/Six, 3,632 mm long, gave more room to rear passengers. The two models together sold about 1,500 cars, at 230 to 237 pounds when introduced.
