The Triumph TR5 was introduced in August 1967 and remained on sale for just 13 months until September 1968. Visually similar to the Michelotti-designed TR4 open two-seater it was derived from the TR5 replaced Triumph's 105 bhp (78 kW) SAE Standard inline-four engine with the much more powerful Lucas mechanical fuel-injected 150 bhp (110 kW) Triumph 2.5-litre straight-6.The base price of a 1968 TR5 in the UK was £1,260 including taxes. Standard equipment included front disc brakes, independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering and a four speed gearbox. Optional extras included wire wheels (£38), overdrive (£60), and a tonneau cover (£13). It was also available with a Surrey Top hard top, a weather protection system with rigid rear section including the rear window and removable fabric section over the driver and passenger's heads.

The Triumph TR250 was built during the same period for the North American market. Price pressures and tighter emission regulations resulted in twin Zenith-Stromberg carburettors being fitted instead of the TR5's Lucas fuel injection system. Otherwise it is nearly identical. The TR250's engine delivered 111 bhp, 39 bhp less than the TR5. The TR250 was also available with the Surrey Top system.

In 1968, the TR250 sold in the USA for approximately US$3,395, with wire wheels an $118 option, overdrive $175, and air conditioning $395
