Price pressures and tighter emissions standards in the U.S. resulted in a much less powerful carburetted version, the TR250, being sold on the North American market.

Standard equipment included front disc brakes, independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering and a four speed gearbox.

Of these, 1,161 were destined for the UK market,[6] the remainder were left hand drive and were exported to France, Belgium and Germany amongst other countries.

Price pressures and tighter emission regulations resulted in twin Zenith-Stromberg carburettors being fitted instead of the TR5's Lucas fuel injection system.

[10] Engine: Turning circle: 10.1 m (33 ft) Capacities: Performance: A total of 8,484 TR250s were built, many destined for the US and Canada.
