The Tata Ultra T.16 SL AMT costs about Rs 22 lakh to Rs 23.98 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 Ultra T.16 SL AMT 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 10,000 kg. Gross vehicle weight is 16,190 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 Ultra T.16 SL AMT uses a 5,005 cc diesel engine, 177 HP, 700 Nm of torque. It meets BS VI norms.
Gross vehicle weight is 16,190 kg, or about 16.19 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, fruits and vegetables. If your daily load and route match that kind of work, this truck fits.
It comes with a 6 Speed automatic gearbox. An automatic is easier in stop-start city traffic and takes less out of the driver on a long day.
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 275/80R22.5.
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 Bharat Benz 1617R (16,200 kg GVW, from about Rs 22.22 lakh), Eicher Pro 3015 (16,371 kg GVW, from about Rs 21.46 lakh) and Ashok Leyland ecomet STAR 1615 HE (16,100 kg GVW, from about Rs 23 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 Ultra T.16 SL AMT has a GVW of 16,190 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.
