Strong Engine and Advanced Features

Powering the LPT 812 is Tata’s trusted 4SPCR diesel engine delivering 125hp and 360Nm torque. It is paired with a 5-speed gearbox and a booster-assisted clutch that ensures smoother gear shifts and reduces driver fatigue.

Key features include:

These specifications provide durability, safety, and better driving comfort while handling heavy payloads in urban conditions.

Warranty and After-Sales Support

The truck is backed by a 3-year/3 lakh km warranty and complete lifecycle management through the Tata Motors Sampoorna Seva 2.0 program. Customers also get access to the Fleet Edge digital solution for real-time vehicle monitoring, helping reduce costs and improve uptime. With more than 3,200 service touchpoints across India, Tata Motors ensures reliable after-sales support.
