FAQs on the LPT 1216

Ask about on-road price, variant specs, dealers near you or finance. The trucks-india.com desk replies within one working day.
The TATA LPT 1216 costs about Rs 23.14 lakh to Rs 26.14 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 LPT 1216 gives about 7 kmpl. Your actual figure depends on load, road condition and driving style. With a 160 litre tank, that is roughly 1,120 km on one full tank.
Rated payload is 7,500 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 11,990 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 LPT 1216 uses a 3,300 cc diesel engine, 123 HP, 475 Nm of torque. It meets BS VI-II norms.
Gross vehicle weight is 11,990 kg, or about 11.99 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 parcel, courier, poultry and lpg cylinder. 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 R20 - 20 PR Radial Low CRR Tyre.
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 Eicher Pro 2110 7S (11,990 kg GVW, from about Rs 23 lakh), SML ISUZU Samrat 1312 Diesel (11,990 kg GVW, from about Rs 23.7 lakh) and Bharat Benz 1217R (11,990 kg GVW, from about Rs 24.27 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 LPT 1216 has a GVW of 11,990 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.
