Ask about on-road price, variant specs, dealers near you or finance. The trucks-india.com desk replies within one working day.
The TATA 1012 LPT costs about Rs 19 lakh to Rs 22 lakh ex-showroom. On-road price is higher because RTO tax, insurance and registration get added on top, and those change by state. Ask two or three dealers in your city, because discounts differ.
The TATA 1012 LPT gives about 8 kmpl. Your actual figure depends on load, road condition and driving style. With a 120 litre tank, that is roughly 960 km on one full tank.
Rated payload is 6,000 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 10,500 kg, which is the truck plus the load together. Stay inside this figure. Overloading breaks springs and tyres early and invites fines at the check post.
The TATA 1012 LPT uses a 2,956 cc diesel engine, 97 HP, 360 Nm of torque. It meets BS VI-II norms.
Gross vehicle weight is 10,500 kg, or about 10.5 tonnes. GVW is the total allowed weight of the truck plus body plus goods, and it decides which licence and permit you need.
It is mainly used for construction material, industrial goods, transportation and fruits. If your daily load and route match that kind of work, this truck fits.
It comes with a 5-speed manual gearbox. A manual gearbox keeps the running cost and the repair bill lower, and most workshops can handle it.
Air conditioning is not listed as standard on this version. Some dealers fit it as an accessory, so ask for the price before you book.
It has 6 tyres in a 4x2 layout. Tyre size is 8.25 R16 - 16PR Low CRR Tyre(Dia - 420).
Tata Motors gives a manufacturer warranty on this truck. The exact months and kilometre limit change by model and state, so get it in writing from your dealer at the time of booking.
The closest options at this size are Ashok Leyland ecomet STAR 1015 HE (11,120 kg GVW, from about Rs 19 lakh), Mahindra FURIO 10 (10,350 kg GVW, from about Rs 20 lakh) and Eicher Pro 2095XPT (11,100 kg GVW, from about Rs 18.5 lakh). Compare payload, mileage and the service network on your own route before you decide, because those three decide your cost per km more than the sticker price does.
The TATA 1012 LPT has a GVW of 10,500 kg, above the 7,500 kg light motor vehicle limit, so the driver needs a medium goods vehicle transport licence. An ordinary LMV (car) licence does not cover it.
