मारुति सुज़ुकी रिट्ज़ यूज़र रिव्यूज़

 

Exterior Dis-balanced looks - front overtly simple, back overtly flamboyant. However, i think thats what happens to maruti cars; the same happened with original zen, wagon R and now Ritz - these win over by performance and not by looks.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Height adjustable driver seat and steering useful. steering mounted audio controls come handy. audio quality 6.5/10. gear handle location convenient. plastic and fittings poor - my overhead rear view mirror came off (believe I didnt hang on it). driver side door inner plastic cover knob loose - I had to bang it in place. Maruti could have charged few more thousand and give a better deal (look at new Wagon R interiors - much superior plastic material). 

Boot space is good (~250L) - more than swift, I 10. 60:40 split increases the usefulness of space utilization.

Reminder alarms for headlights, key in ignition, seat belts, door ajar are useful.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine fantastic, responds to acceleration nicely. FE ~13-14 in chandigarh city drive (which is now becoming trafficy, and requires frequent gear shift) before first service (first 700Km). gearbox conveniently located.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good. power steering is good. driver sear height and adjustability is a big advantage (those who have driven wagon R, Santro know what it means to have height while driving). overall a smooth experience.

 

Final Words Thumbs up. cant get a better deal for 5L.

 

Areas of improvement

- Inner plastic - needs immediate attention

- Looks

- Cup holders inside th cabin

Yesterday I test drove Ritz. Wow what a car! It came unannounced unlike the usual brouhaha that precedes the launch of any Maruti car but it will create news post launch thats for sure.From the back the car looks like a slightly deflated CR-V. From the front it looks like SX4. The drive is even more nimble than Santro. Plus it is very silent unlike Santro. The AC made you feel as you are driving in the Hills even in the scorching mid-day summer of Kanpur with the temperature rising to 47 degrees. I have been looking for a around 5L car for past 3 months. I am confident that my search has ended with this. Specially with Jazz getting released at 7L unlike 5.5L informed by carwaleGreat seating, soundless, very nimble, great facadeboot could be bigger!

i was looking for a car since June 09, i was looking for safety (ABS minimum), comfort (easy to get in for my elder parents - comfortable sitting for 5), practical ( driving - rear visibilty, while parking), a budget close to 5 lakhs/ half a million, & fuel average, in that order.

After test drives with Jazz, Ritz petrol, & i10. i finally settled for Ritz Zxi & i feel satisfied today - i have a great car.

It runs smoothly in city at 3rd & 4th gears, i need to go down to 2nd only when i stop at red lights, the air conditioner, the steering mounted music controls are the best.

The only thing i was expecting an average of around 20 kmpl, but i am getting 13-14 only. the company promised 17.7 kmpl. But with frequent AC use / bigger tyres as compared to those on Vxi / Lxi; city driving on narrow lanes, i believe its a great.

finally one day i read that its front grills / facade bears a semblance with Audi, one of my most revered cars - that day i thanked the god to have fulfilled my dream so soon.

thanks

 

 

a great car that's all i can say, i had it on 31 aug 09 - & i am overwhelmed every time i drive.the only worrying thing is its average, mine being Zxi with biggertyres runs 13-14 kmpl

Exterior - Immense and intense styling, seems like it has been chiseled. gives a majestic and appealing . You do not have to bend while getting into the car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) - plush interiors, everything is available in and around to the driver's seat, starting from stearing mounted audio controls to security switch etc.

The music system is mind blowing and interface is smooth. the seats are very comfy and do not give back-ache in long drives (as in ZEN)

You have enough space to keeps ur accessories eg a glove box in the dash board, a coin holder,  bottle holder, underseat tray, side tray etc.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox - Smooth gear shift, located at a comfortable angle.

Ride Quality & Handling - Ride is smooth with wonderful handling and good rear and front view.

Final Words - If you want complete luxury in the mid segment, your search ends here. This car offers total satifaction and complete value for money.

Areas of improvement - I think they are giving everything i have paid for and it does not need any improvement, but, they could still think of providing the music system which has pen-drive connectivity as an option.

interiors, performance, driver's console, comfortthe clock could have been placed with the music system, but, it does not matter much.

I took a test drive, it was good. I did not find single draw back except the tubless typres otherwise this car has everything. Reasonable price range. Actually I am waiting for this kind of car. I have test I10 and as well as I20 but overall I feel this car is better than those two.Impressed by overall car design and look for the priceIt would have been better if Maruti provides Tubless tyres as well

 

Exterior The car looks good from front side. Some people say that the back side of the car is not good. looks like some wone has kicked  on the car. Hight of the car is nice. geting in and coming out is easy.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfort of the car is good u dont feel tired after driving 200+ km.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is powerfull goes very nice in ghats. fuel avafre in city with ac 13.5. Mixed highway and city 15.50 only higway 17 only highway 17.0.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Nice experince of riding for front seats. but avarage.

 

Final Words Overall nice car good experince u recemend other people.

 

Areas of improvement Rear seat must be more comfortable . Interior color choice must be there only blue is avalible in zxi, rpm meter must be in he dash board and not above  the dash board people ask what it is?

 

in city with ac i am geting 13.5 avarage .we dont have choice in zxi as there is only blue color and the rpm meter mustnot be there

Exterior

 Aerrodynamically awesome is the word coined for this car having an european styling, elegant tail light, muscular tall boy

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Spacious, Dashing, Funky, Usable, Lovable, Seats feel as if sitting on a Sofa, front seats literally hug you, decent quality music system

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Best in the class engine, 18-22kmpl with AC on is awesome except in highly congested areas it drops down to 15kmpl but its pardonable, lovely gear box but slight notchy feel shifting in third gear

Ride Quality & Handling

 Soft suspension so no hassels of potholes or speed brakers as its smooth, high speed stablility at approx 155 kmph easily, relaxed driving

Final Words

 A true vaulable buy for indian customers like me also selling like hot cakes in european country

Areas of improvement

 atlest auto climate control in ZXI but its okey i dont drive more than 800 kms per month

 

Exterior Styling, High FE (17-21), Spacious than any other in segmentRear View Mirror Too Small

Very good experience....first my choice was hundai.....but i purchased a old car(Ritz)....Ritz is very good experience for me.....very smooth,very silent car.. pickup is very fast...

Exterior Jus show me a car with soo sexy looks at this price.. Many ppl hate the rear desing. Cuz they are much obsessed with the Vista or the Swift.. Zxi trim looks the best as it has body clrd. mirrors n door handles. + adding a side moulding will definitely enhance the look of the car!!! Alloys compliment.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I have experienced many hatchs but this one has the space which no one will ever dream of. Loads of luxurios n premium as well as practical features makes Ritz unique in its class.. Be it the coin box or the tray under co-passenger seat, each n evry feature is usefull!! The Tachometer definitely grabs everyone's eyeballs!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Powerful engine performance. Sporty gearbox. Talking about the fuel economy, itz good. Can be better.

Ride Quality & Handling Amazing handling. I can simply compare the ride quality with the Honda City!!! Do I need to say anything more?

Final Words Young families should definitely consider this option. Itz a practical buy. Beautiful exteriors n elegant interiors. An overall package which evry youngster desires of.

Areas of improvement They should provide USB Port for the music system. Everything else is upto the mark!! Go for it!

Exterior looks, Tail lamps, Superb pick-up, Sporty looks with sophistication!!!No USB Port for music system, Mileage is an area of concern!!!
