The Tata Signa 2818 FBV costs about Rs 34 lakh to Rs 51 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 Signa 2818 FBV gives about 5 kmpl. Your actual figure depends on load, road condition and driving style. With a 365 litre tank, that is roughly 1,825 km on one full tank.
Rated payload is 20,000 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 28,000 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 Signa 2818 FBV uses a 5,635 cc diesel engine, 180 HP, 850 Nm of torque. It meets BS VI norms.
Gross vehicle weight is 28,000 kg, or about 28 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 milk transportation, fish and cold storage. If your daily load and route match that kind of work, this truck fits.
It comes with a 6 Speed 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 10 tyres in a 6x2 layout. Tyre size is 295/90R20.
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 2820 Drill Rig (28,000 kg GVW, from about Rs 34 lakh), Eicher pro 6028 (28,000 kg GVW, from about Rs 33 lakh) and Mahindra Blazo X 28 Transit Mixer (28,000 kg GVW, from about Rs 33 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 Signa 2818 FBV has a GVW of 28,000 kg, above the 7,500 kg light motor vehicle limit, so the driver needs a heavy goods vehicle transport licence. An ordinary LMV (car) licence does not cover it.
