The Triumph 1300 was introduced as a small four door Saloon at the 1965 London Motor Show with the intention of replacing the popular Herald, although the both models were to remain in production. Like the Herald the car was designed by Italian stylist Giovanni Michelotti and was Leylands first front wheel drive model, their major rival BMC had long since established a range of FWD cars. Triumph decided to adopt a different layout to BMC however, placing the engine above the gearbox in a front-back configuration (but not sharing the same oil) rather than BMC's transverse engine layout.. The engine was the same 1296 cc unit as used in the Triumph Herald 13/60 a conventional OHV four-cylinder unit, it developed 61 hp with the single Stromberg CD150 carburettor.

In 1969 the basic1300 was joined by the Triumph 1300TC The TC used the engine then fitted in the Triumph Spitfire, which featured twin SU carburetors and in this configuration provided an advertised 75 hp The car was identified by discreet "TC" badges. Top speed was significantly higher than the 1300 at a claimed 90 mph
