Triumph Super 9

Automobiles

The Triumph Super 9 was a British motorcar introduced by the Triumph Motor Company in 1931 at a price of 185 pounds and built into 1933, with an RAC rating of 8.9 hp. It was the first Triumph to use 12-volt electrics and the first to be fitted with a Coventry Climax engine, made under licence by Triumph, an inlet-over-exhaust unit of 1018 cc with a 60 mm bore and a 90 mm stroke. A top speed of 60 mph was obtainable with a cruising speed of 45 mph, and petrol consumption was around 35 mpg for a car weighing 19 cwt unladen, with the petrol tank at the rear, unlike the gravity tank of the Super 7.
