The Singer Gazelle was a name used by the British maker Singer for two generations of car, positioned between the basic Hillman range and the more sporting Sunbeam versions. The first Gazelle, announced in late September 1956, was the first Singer built after the Rootes Group took the company over, and it was a version of the mainstream Hillman Minx that kept the Singer overhead cam engine and had a restyled nose with a traditional Singer grille. It was first offered as a saloon and a convertible, with an estate added for the Series II from autumn 1957. The convertible was discontinued in February 1962 and the estate in March 1962.
