Tatra T815 is a truck family, produced by Czech company Tatra. It uses the traditional tatra concept of rigid backbone tube and swinging half-axles giving independent suspension. The vehicles are available in 4×4, 6×6, 8×8, 10×8, 10×10, 12×8 and 12×12 variants. There are both air-cooled and liquid-cooled engines available with power ranging from 230–610 kilowatts (310–820 hp). As a succesor to Tatra T813 it was originally designed for extreme off-road condition, while nowadays there are also variants designated for mixed (both off- and on-road) use.
