1923: The Triumph 10/20 was introduced,

horsepower rating and its actual output of 20
horsepower. The car was primarily designed by
Arthur Alderson who was assisted by Alan Lea and
Arthur Sykes, they were employed by Lea-Francis
with Triumph paying them a royalty on every car

engine produced 23.5 bhp at 3000rpm, this gave
the car a top speed of 52mph and covered 40

with 2 seats in an open tourer, there were
provisions for a third passenger, in a dickey
seat that would not be made by Triumph, instead
bought in from the Regent Carriage Company of
