Mini Truck (Tata Ace class, India) dimensions
A Mini Truck (Tata Ace class, India) measures 2.13 m (7′0″) long, 1.37 m (4′6″) wide and 1.37 m (4′6″) high inside — about 4 m³ (142 ft³) of usable space, with a payload up to 750 kg (1,653 lb).
Sub-1 ton mini truck (Tata Ace / Chhota Hathi class) — the backbone of Indian last-mile and intra-city delivery. Body ~7×4.5×4.5 ft.
Internal dimensions and capacity
| Specification | Metric | Imperial |
|---|---|---|
| Internal length | 2.13 m | 7′0″ (7 ft) |
| Internal width | 1.37 m | 4′6″ |
| Internal height | 1.37 m | 4′6″ |
| Capacity | 4 m³ | 142 ft³ |
| Floor area | 2.9 m² | 31 ft² |
| Max payload | 750 kg | 1,653 lb |
| TEU equivalent | 0.12 | |
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 length | 7 ft |
| Chassis | Mini truck |
| Capacity | 142 CFT |
| Payload | 0.75 t (750 kg) |
| Crossover density | 5.3 kg/CFT |
Cargo denser than 5.3 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 Mini Truck (Tata Ace class, India)?
| Pallet | On the floor | Double-stacked | Max load height for 2 tiers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Euro pallet (1200 × 800 mm) | 2 | 4 | 0.68 m |
| Standard pallet (1200 × 1000 mm) | 2 | 4 | 0.68 m |
| US GMA pallet (48 × 40 in) | 2 | 4 | 0.68 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 750 kg payload allows about 1 of them.
