8ft Pickup (India) dimensions

An 8ft Pickup (India) measures 2.44 m (8′0″) long, 1.37 m (4′6″) wide and 1.68 m (5′6″) high inside — about 5.6 m³ (198 ft³) of usable space, with a payload up to 1,250 kg (2,756 lb).

8ft pickup (Tata Intra/Yodha, Mahindra Bolero Pickup class): the step up from a Tata Ace on Indian intra-city hire, and the first body in this fleet that takes a full-height load. Body ~8×4.5×5.5 ft.

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.

Max payload is what the equipment itself is rated for. What you may legally load is often lower once the road leg's gross and per-axle limits apply — see container weight limits and max payload.

In Indian road-freight terms

Body length8 ft
ChassisSingle-axle (SXL)
Capacity198 CFT
Payload1.25 t (1,250 kg)
Crossover density6.3 kg/CFT

Cargo denser than 6.3 kg/CFT weighs this truck out before it fills the body; lighter cargo cubes out first. Compare it against the rest of the fleet on the Indian truck size and capacity chart.

How many pallets fit in a 8ft Pickup (India)?

PalletOn the floorDouble-stackedMax load height for 2 tiers
Euro pallet (1200 × 800 mm)360.83 m
Standard pallet (1200 × 1000 mm)240.83 m
US GMA pallet (48 × 40 in)240.83 m

Maximum floor fit with pallets turned to their best orientation — the same basis as the widely quoted 11-in-a-20ft and 25-in-a-40ft figures. It is a geometric maximum: it assumes pallets touch, so allow a pallet or two fewer where a crew needs handling clearance, and check the door opening for the last row.

Double-stacking is a condition, not a promise: two tiers only fit if each loaded pallet stays under the height in the last column. Weight usually bites first — at a mid-range 700 kg per loaded pallet, this vessel's 1,250 kg payload allows about 1 of them.

How much of this road vehicle will your cargo fill?

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.
