Tata Motors has expanded its small commercial vehicle line-up with the Tata Intra V40 bi-fuel pickup, a petrol + CNG version aimed at fleet owners and last-mile operators who want payload capability with lower fuel-cost anxiety. The headline figures are practical rather than flashy: a 1,525 kg payload, a 110-litre CNG tank, a 9.7 ft load body, and an up to 800 km claimed range in bi-fuel operation.
What you need to know
Model: Tata Intra V40 bi-fuel pickup.
Fuel setup: petrol + CNG bi-fuel operation.
Payload: 1,525 kg.
CNG tank: 110 litres.
Load body: 2,960 mm, or about 9.7 ft.
Claimed range: up to 800 km in bi-fuel operation, as per product-page context.
Tata Intra V40 bi-fuel key specifications
| Detail | Reported figure | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 1.2-litre unit | Designed for small commercial vehicle duty. |
| Output | 58 BHP and 106 Nm | Supports urban and regional cargo usage. |
| Payload | 1,525 kg | Useful for high-load last-mile and distribution work. |
| CNG tank | 110 litres | Reduces frequent refuelling for CNG fleet users. |
| Load body | 2,960 mm / 9.7 ft | Helps carry bulky goods within the compact pickup format. |
| Range claim | Up to 800 km | Should be treated as a claimed bi-fuel figure, not guaranteed real-world loaded range. |

Why the bi-fuel setup matters
For small commercial vehicle buyers, a CNG-petrol setup can be more useful than a single-fuel CNG vehicle when route length, refuelling access and uptime are all important. CNG can help reduce operating costs where pump access is strong, while petrol backup gives operators more flexibility on longer or less predictable routes.
The Intra V40 bi-fuel therefore fits a specific buyer profile: fleet owners, traders, FMCG distributors and last-mile cargo operators who want a compact truck but do not want to compromise heavily on payload or daily usability.
What fleet buyers should check
Local CNG access: the ownership case is strongest where CNG stations are convenient.
Loaded range: real-world fuel economy will vary with payload, route, driver behaviour and traffic.
Body use case: the 9.7 ft load body is useful for volume-heavy goods, but buyers should match it to route and cargo type.
Final pricing: city-wise ex-showroom and on-road pricing should be checked with dealers before comparing against diesel, petrol or EV alternatives.
