After reviewing various options in the hatchback, finally I purchased Ritz VXi yesterday. I profusely thank Carwale for their excellent coverage of different car and research on various cars along with user reviews. This enabled me to narrow down my search to RiTZ, Fabia, I10 and Grande Punto. After researching for several months on these cars and test drive, I finally decided to buy Ritz for its style, performance, engine and BS-4. Althogh the backside of RiTZ looked ugly to me during early days of its release, after continuously looking at the car, it is becoming more appealing for me  now. Around 5 lakhs for the VXi model with few accessories looks little expensive. Still, it has a new engine, BS-IV emmision norms and good suspesion, better mileage than Swift etc. Considering all these, I give excellent grade for the car as of now. After using the car for few more months, I will once again my review of the car.

Good style with choice for superior colours

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!!!

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I have driven the car for 2 months for about 2200 kms till date. Acceleration and engine performance very good. Even at 100 km/hr, drive is very smooth with sturdy feel. No shakes and rattles often associated with diesel engines. I am getting a mileage of 16km/ltr. Dealer says it will go up further with next servicing.

Ride Quality & Handling Very good.

Final Words I had basically zeroed in on the Ritz, Chevrolet Beat & Ford Figo diesel models. The Beat has a very claustraphobic feel especially if you sit at the back. Engine was also underpowered. Between the Ritz and Figo, i went with the former because it is a much taller & sturdier car than Figo and of course the Maruti network and brand name is unparalleled!

Areas of improvement The main let down was the dealer. The fiiting of the accesories like fog lamps and music system was shoddy. One of the speakers stopped working soon after delivery and i had to take the car back for repairing it. Also 2 door clips for fixing the panels went missing and are yet to be replaced.

Very comfortable. Good mileage. Lots of space.Looks could improve. Fitting of accesories by dealer very shoddy.

GEAR BOX, ENGINE, MILEAGE, SEATING,LOW QUALITY AUTO PART IN MARUTI RITZ LIKE FUEL PUMP

may I please have your attention for I have something to say to you. I have owned a car since 2006. It was maruti 800, my first car, then it was an alto and now I own a maruti Ritz vdi, which i purchased on 2012 for 6.35 lacks, if I might add. And all I use this car for is to go to my work place, which is around 12 km from my home and for occasional visits to my spouse’s and friends home.

After one week while I was washing my car I noticed that the paint in my car was beginning to come off, actually there was some bubble like formation in some parts of the car. On close examination, one part of the door had tiny amount of paints peeled off and it was getting rusty. On thorough examination I found out that the doors and the bottom side of the bonnet had that bubble like formation of the paint. And more, the dickey and the place where we fill the diesel was starting to get rusty. (Car underwent Teflon coating also) And I reported this to the service station, and as always I was disappointed with the response I got from them. I requested many options to territory service manager Mr Midhun, like extend my warranty for another two year, give me promise that it wont happen any more.. Replace my vehicle if rust issue is recurring after patch work. Maruti is no more ready for any promises. they will patch work it and paint it till the warranty ends. Any help from your side will be highly appreciated. I have created a website for educating customers about this issue.

enginerusting and poor quality

I am a State government employee, working as a Jr.assistant at Revenue Department , Khammam since 6years 6 months my Pan Card No BJZPM2439J and my present addresses is Khammam. Near Akshara Heart Hospital, opp. Of Jammi Banda, Nzampeta Road, Nzampeta, Khammam pin.507004, and my House No. 8-3-192, and my permanent address is Penuball village, Mandal Khammam District Telangana

I had to decide between Ritz , i10/20 , Swift and Fiat . I am six feet tall so the Ritz won the round just getting into the car. Great driving position. Just got it so dont have much to write . Maybe I should get over new car excitement to write a review. There are may cons in this forum but I think for the price you pay its a good car. Its Suzuki backed with most service centres and affordable spares. How can you go wrong . For a city driver like me, spendin hours in traffic , most top end features are a waste of money. Be in a Merc or a Suzuki , we all follow the slow rikshawalla in front !!  The car is certainly better than i10 . The only thing you have to be carefull is the blindspot . But then it just reminds you to be a better  driver and take extra bit precaution . Overall good work from Suzuki .

 

Engine ,Good driver position , Handling , styling , VFMblind spot,

I want to ask people who have purchased the petrol version of this car, if the pertrol version is good in terms of performance. I mean the people at the showroom dont want to sell ritz petrol they emphesize on diesel models only, which exceed my budget. Ritz Vxi is also streaching my budget a bit. Please send ur suggestions as to which car can i buy with a budget of about 4-4.5 lacs.Amazing looks, powerful drive, great control, and wonderful space.
