It is also commonly known as the "Frogeye" in the UK and "Bugeye" in the US due to the unique front-end styling of the car.

The interior of the car is modestly appointed, with basic instrumentation and a simple, functional design. Although the Austin-Healey Sprite Mk I was marketed as an entry-level sports car, it quickly gained a reputation for being a fun-to-drive and affordable sports car.
