Flashback to June 2010. The location is Delhi. The sun is out in all its glory. They don't call it an Indian Summer for anything. I'm getting ready to go to work... but little do I know that this will be the day that'll change my perception of a "moment" forever. I get into my raggedy, ancient Santro. This warhorse has seen its days, but even this machine is no match for the sun god, which is out on all of its glory. Maybe this IS the last day on earth. I start the car, put the AC to the maximum and hope for the best. Ten minutes in. Twenty minutes in. Thirty minutes in. This is depressing. I'd rather put a damn cooler in here. The car and the rest of me are getting hotter by the minute... all the while noticing a blue car scream past me with the windows up. If green was the color of envy, I'd been the greenest thing you ever have seen. I crawl to my place of work. A closed office has never looked so refreshing. Go upstairs, turn on my workstation, and try to recollect what that car looked like... Flash forward to August 2010. The temperature seems to be getting tolerable. My current choice of transportation isn't. A friend of mine buys a new Punto, and shows it off to me. Huh? A Fiat and an AC that sluggish? Perhaps you got handed a weaker model, my friend was my response. As you can see that little bit of June sun was still with me. I start with the comparisons. Punto, no way. An i10 perhaps? What is this, another Santro to replace this one? That car zooming past me 3 months ago was still in my head. Fire up the browser, tap in a few select keywords, and start the research... Google seems to be full of info about this car. The official site has something called a special edition in there... hmmm... interesting. Google and a tussle within my mind keep me occupied, for the better part of the last quarter. A premium hatchback at this salary? Are you crazy? Go for something sensible I thought. And in the Indian Auto Dictionary, if you look up sensible, you'd probably see a photo of a WagonR in there. I went for the customary test drive. First gear, second gear, turn AC on, take it up the slope. How about a fourth gear? I don't think the poor guy liked what I suggested. It rumbled with a loud NO. I agreed and took it back to the showroom. Perhaps someone who considers transportation as going from point A to point B might like it. Disappointed at myself, Google and my research I started to walk back to my old workhorse. The salesman tells me to sit in this customer car they've in for servicing. Hmmm... I think I've seen this car before... it had its windows up and had a shade of blue... WOAH! WOAH! I never thought it'd be so big from the inside! WOAH! Look at that space and funky gear positioning... hehe it even looks like a bull from the cockpit. Whoever put that tachopod in there is a serious sci-fi fan. It looks like the deck of the Enterprise with that thing! I push the driving seat back to fit my crude stature in and take a peek behind the driving seat. I could fit in there again. Was this a sedan in hatchback clothes? I schedule a TD instantly since they don't have a TD vehicle ready. Aww... bummer. One week you say? Seven days have never seemed so long in my life. Eventually, after what seems like eons, the TD day approaches, and the keys are in my hand. One turn, and it's like a cat that's just getting out of bed, purring... we take the city roads, and the cat has started to wake up... the salesman tells me to take it to the highway instead. Bad move, buddy. Well, it's your car.... third gear, 3k on the tacho, and 60kmph on the speedo. Fourth gear, we're already over the century mark. Notice an i20 on the right. Heh. 3k on the tacho, fifth gear, and 120kmph on the speedo. Two minutes on, and I see that faint tilted H in my rear view mirror. Poor guy. The salesman tells me there's something called a special edition too for this beast. Did they put in more horses in that one I quipped? Sadly no. They made it funkier though. A quick trip to your showroom car lot is in order, my friend. There I see what I could only think of as a shy, sleeping bull all covered in dust. One quick wipe and the word GENUS peeks out from the back... GENUS indeed. I concur. This is a fine day. The dreary Indian Summer is long gone. There's no fog, no wind, no work... almost a great day to take delivery of a new car... the trip to the showroom seems longer than a trip to the end of the galaxy. Oh come on! Why are there so many traffic lights in this city? Why do people move so slow? Don't they know I've someone waiting for me? I pull into the showroom after dodging through the traffic, and there it was. The bull wasn't sleepy now. It stood there in all its glory, eyes all wide and ready to be unleashed onto the unsuspecting tarmac. Thirty minutes pass, the formalities are all done... but wait! Oh why does the service advisor need to teach me how the car works now? I guess he's as emotional as I am. I can understand well my friend. And it finally happens. The key falls into my hands. The unlock beep sounds sweet as if two soulmates meeting for the first time... I start her up and honest to god, I don't think I even put the key into the ignition. Perhaps this bull remembers me from my last time. First gear, about 1.5k on the star wars envy-inducing tacho, and the rumble starts.... Present Day. The double unlock beep still sound sweet to me. I get in, first gear, second gear, third, we're on the highway. I see someone sitting in their car on the side of the road. It's starting to get kinda hot these days... I zoom past them in the little bull, windows up. I think he just saw the Car of The Year 2010 sticker at the back... I guess in about 6 months time, there should be another of these little bulls on the road. The Indian Summer, and blazing tarmac, the sluggish i20's on the highway, and the weak so called premium cars have just witnessed the future. They haven't lived the moment. I get to work, lock the car with a beep. The guard asks me which car this is. The bull just winks at me from the parking lot. Ladies & Gentlemen, I present to you, the limited edition Maruti Suzuki Ritz Genus. A moment to be lived.

Finally, I have chosen Maruti Ritz Vdi after gone through all top car reviews of owners. Please find below My experience. My Requirements: - Spacious Front Seating Area, since it will be occupied most of the time. Rear Seats will be used rarely. - Good Mileage. - Decent Looks and Interiors. - Good After Sales Service. - Tried and Tested Product. So, after reviewing many of the Team-BHP Hatchback Reviews and keeping in mind my requirements, I finally shortlisted the following: 1) Ford Figo 2) Maruti Suzuki Ritz 3) Toyota Liva. The first to get eliminated was the Ford Figo, due to: - Low GC Issue : The place where I live has some tall speed breakers and I feared scraping and damaging the bottom no matter how carefully I drive. - Not so good Mileage, compared to Ritz and Liva. - Not sure about Ford After Sales Service. - One of my friends had his complete suspension setup changed in warranty during 2nd Service due to some issue. This did not give me the confidence to go for a Ford Figo, even though it is a brilliant car. The next in line to get eliminated was the Toyota Liva, due to: - Not so inspiring Interiors. - Well known Suspension Noise Issue. - Not so strong build quality. So, the only contender left is Maruti Suzuki Ritz and that's what I ended up with. Having owned a Maruti earlier [Alto Lxi], I was pretty comfortable and confident in the Maruti Suzuki Brand as well as their After Sales Service Department and Network.

Hi all, Took two test drives of the Ritz before finally settling on booking the Vxi today...due to the waiting delivery would be only on dassera...end of September. The car is extremely smooth and has a peppy feel to it (thanks to the 85 bhps)...very roomy feel and good leg room at the rear too...pick up is good though it really gets going in 3rd... dashboard is contemporary and chic...esp the positioning of the gear...Interiors are neat and give a warm feel to the dashboard.. Very quiet engine, can't even be heard when the ignition is turned on...handling is decent and little body roll but only on sharp turns took high speeds. The power steering is so calibrated that it feels lighter to touch at the lower gears and plateaus out on gears 4 and 5...helps in controlling the car better... Due to the high head room the car gives a very roomy and large feel, thereby cutting out the air of claustrophobia which other cars in this segment might have...also, the cooling of the AC is faster to the rear seats precisely for the same reason... will know more only on delivery and after 1st servicing...but overall it's a good car... Finally got delivery of the car on the 11th of October. It is indeed an amazing piece of machinery, though still getting used to the vehicle...amazing drivability...not encountered anybody roll so far in spite of the tall boy design...will know of the average when I go in for a 2nd tank refill... Have got a Panasonic deck with USB, iPod, and bluetooth capability, and installed 2 JBL component speakers (front door) and 2 oblong JBL speakers on the rear tray..with an amplifier...did not go in for a woofer as it would take up boot space... I don't believe this!!! I used up 3/4th of my petrol tank in the first few days running. refilled 27 litres of petrol. Had run 445 kms in the car, the calculation gives me an astounding average of 16!!!

Maruti Suzuki - Ritz "The Tall hatch" from the wide portfolio of Maruti Suzuki is genuinely a no nonsense car. The reasons I bought it were as follows. 1. It carries the name "MARUTI". Just like any other Indian even for me the word MARUTI screams Trust, Reliability, Good resale value, Wide service network, Affordable spares. 2. It was offering a Diesel Engine (I opted for VDi) 3. Compare to Swift it was approximately Rs.40,000/- cheaper at that time and was offering the same engine as Swift. 4. Availability - No waiting period. I have already clocked around 90,000 Kms in last 6.5 Years and I'm totally satisfied with its performance. In these 6.5 Years never has been a day that I regretted buying this car. I basically use it for my daily routine from my house to office which is approximately 10 kms and occasionally for a long trip as well. It's great to drive it in city as well as on a Highway. The overall fuel efficiency is great as well. I have been steadily getting around 15-16 Km/Ltr. The overall built of the car is quite impressive. Till now I have replaced all the 4 tyres and battery with new ones. There have been minor issues with the AC twice but were easily fixed by the local mechanic. Even the local mechanics swear by Maruti, they always advice me to replace this car only with a MARUTI car. Coming to the Interiors. They are quite simple and basic which isn't a problem with me. They have given a nice sporty Tachometer on the dash to give it a sports car feel. There is a very clean and nice odometer. The steering is quite comfortable. The gear box is very smartly placed and adds to the modern look of the car also it is very soft to use. There are sufficient Knick-knacks in the car, my personal favourite is the compartment on the centre of dashboard. The rear seating is very comfortable as well with sufficient knee and head room. 3 people can manage comfortably in the rear seats. The boot space is also sufficient. Exteriors: The tail lights of the car looks really modern and add to the overall rear look of the car. The VDi trim is provided with two round fog lamps on the bumper. The side profile is quite appealing as well. The Tyres are bigger than the most of the other hatchbacks in the market. The Wheel caps have a pleasant design. The overall width of the Car and Wheelbase is such that it is very easy to maneuver the car in a cranky city ride. Cons: 1. The diesel engine does have that loud peculiar sound that easily differentiates it with a petrol car. 2. The spare parts aren't that reasonable as I expected. 3. No music system and no audio controls on the steering. Conclusion: Overall as mentioned its worth every penny spent. It is very different from other hatchbacks available in the market in terms of overall appearance. Great engine, great fuel economy.

A good car with a lot of space and comfort. Even tall guys can find it very comfortable. The position of gear box is perfect and the build quality is amazing. The economy of the car is good and with servicing gets even better. Overall the car is good and a good choice for a four to five lakh budget.  

Hi Friends, I am writing this review after 2.5 years of usage. I purchased the car after a lot of research. I must say online browsing was really helpful in making the right choice. To start with, I shortlisted 4-5 cars before going for Ritz 1. Honda Brio 2. Hyundai i10 3. Maruti Swift 4. Ford Figo My height is 6 "1' so I was looking for a car with extra head space. Moreover, Ritz is my second car, the first one being Maruti Swift Dzire VDI. Let me go one by one how I narrowed down to Maruti Ritz. Average - Scored over Brio and Figo. Tall Boy looks - scored over swift, Figo and Brio Looks - that's an individual choice [I liked it]. I personally liked the Tall Boy looks. Sales support - Scored over Ford and Honda in terms of availability of service stations. The technical differences could be easily compared online, so I am not going into much of detail. It's a low maintenance car. I have got it serviced regularly at the authorized service centers. I personally use the car for daily office commute and occasional intercity trips. On highways, I have got an average of around 18-19 kmpl. Hope this review is helpful!

Look and Style: Of course in the previous version I have seen many negative reviews, but New RITZ has got the best look with the rear spoiler.� Comfort: Good comfort level whether in driving or in seating. Pickup: Excellent pickup up. Even on the slopes, it has brilliant pulling power. Mileage: On the highway, I get around 22 kmpl and in the city, I get 18+. Best Features: Its Tall Boy Design, Pickup, and Mileage. Needs to improve: Quality of interiors needs to be improved. Overall Experience: Excellent. I have test driven almost every car in the segment, I preferred RITZ amongst all. It ranges within my budget and of course, the best service from Maruti.

Look and Style: good Comfort: good Pickup: good Mileage: not bad Best Features: not available more features in the middle variant. Needs to improve: Handling the customers. Overall Experience: very very bad, I would like to update you that Maruti brand name is good, apart from that nothing, Ex: Ritz vdi comes at around 7 Lacs in which what are the feature you get, and same 7 lac in Totota and Renult what are the features you get also compare the engine then you will come to know. Now I come to the maintenance of the car, this feedback no one updated till date, once your car reaches 20,000 KM, Maruti will charge minimum 10,000 RS and Toyota maximum 2,500/--, Renault maximum 5,000/--.for every service. Drive comfort: most of the people go to Maruti cars because of Brand, that's fine, no issue: I would like to suggest you that whenever you plan to buy a car, first do a test drive of all brand cars, then you finalize it, I hope if you drive Toyota and Renault, you will not go to Maruti. For Bangalore people : even if you are interested in Maruti, don't go to RNS Motors because they never ever clear in the Product and finance, Ex: if you ask any Basic accessories they will not clearly tell that we will give you, they always says that I will talk to My manager, once you book the car then they will clearly tell that it is extra charges. then no way... u need to accept it or else cancel the booking if you cancel the car they will charge you 3000 rs for cancellation. Be careful with RNS Motors, this is my experience. now I am planning to buy Toyota Liva.
