The Tata LPT 812 costs about Rs 17 lakh to Rs 20 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 812 gives about 9 kmpl. Your actual figure depends on load, road condition and driving style. With a 90 litre tank, that is roughly 810 km on one full tank.
Rated payload is 5,000 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 8,500 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 LPT 812 uses a 3,300 cc diesel engine, 123 HP, 360 Nm of torque. It meets BS VI norms.
Gross vehicle weight is 8,500 kg, or about 8.5 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 multi‑purpose goods carrier. If your daily load and route match that kind of work, this truck fits.
It comes with a G400 (5F+1R) Cable shift mechanism manual gearbox. A manual gearbox keeps the running cost and the repair bill lower, and most workshops can handle it.
Yes, air conditioning is part of the cabin. That matters on long runs in summer, and drivers stay with the job longer when the cabin is comfortable.
It has 4 tyres in a 4×2 layout. Tyre size is 245/90R16.
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 2059XP HD (9,150 kg GVW, from about Rs 17 lakh), SML ISUZU Supreme GS (8,500 kg GVW, from about Rs 15.18 lakh) and Ashok Leyland Partner 6 Tyre (7,490 kg GVW, from about Rs 17 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 812 has a GVW of 8,500 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.
