A 32ft Container — MXL (India) measures 9.75 m (32′0″) long, 2.44 m (8′0″) wide and 2.44 m (8′0″) high inside — about 58 m³ (2,048 ft³) of usable space, with a payload up to 16,000 kg (35,274 lb).
32ft multi-axle (MXL) closed-body container truck — the workhorse of Indian domestic road freight. Loading body is 32×8×8 ft (~9.75 × 2.44 × 2.44 m interior, ~58 m³); the multi-axle chassis carries roughly 16 t.

Internal (usable) figures, not external. Capacity is the geometric interior volume — real cargo never fills 100% of it, because pallets, dunnage and irregular shapes leave void space.
The table above is the box. What matters is how your cargo sits in it — how many units fit, where the weight lands, and whether you run out of floor or payload first. Enter your cargo and get the answer, free and without signing up.
