Our take on this /// Verdict

The Maruti Ritz VXi ABS is a solid choice for those seeking a reliable and feature-packed hatchback in the Indian market. My experience with this vehicle has been overwhelmingly positive, particularly in terms of its stability at high speeds and its comfortable ride quality. The cars 1.2-liter K series petrol engine is smooth and silent, providing a pleasant driving experience. The interior is well-packaged with ample headroom, comfortable front and rear seats, and a convenient gear lever mounting location. However, there are a few areas that could be improved, such as the clutch feel, which can be a bit hard initially, and the rear seat space, which is somewhat conservative. Overall, the Ritz VXi ABS offers great value for money, making it a versatile car suitable for various family members.

Price

The Maruti Ritz VXi ABS, when it was available, was priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for the VXi ABS variant was around 6.43 lakh in major cities like Mumbai. On-road prices, including taxes and other costs, would typically range from 7.5 lakh to 8 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing made the Ritz VXi ABS an attractive option for buyers looking for a feature-rich hatchback with safety features like ABS and EBD. While the model is no longer in production, its pricing strategy at the time reflected Maruti Suzukis commitment to offering value-for-money vehicles.

Latest Updates

Friday, 17 April 2015 06:16 PM Maruti Suzuki Discontinues the Ritz: In 2015, Maruti Suzuki decided to discontinue the Ritz model due to low sales. This move was to make way for the new YRA model. Despite its discontinuation, the Ritz had a loyal customer base. I think this decision was necessary for Maruti to focus on more popular models and innovate their lineup.

Sunday, 15 March 2015 09:54 PM Special Editions and Discounts: To boost sales, Maruti Suzuki introduced limited editions like the Ritz Elate and offered significant discounts of up to Rs. 65,000. These efforts were aimed at attracting more buyers before the models eventual discontinuation. I believe these strategies were last-ditch efforts to keep the model relevant in a competitive market.

Friday, 19 July 2013 06:08 AM Mileage and Fuel Efficiency: The Maruti Ritz VXi ABS had a mileage of 18.5 kmpl for the manual petrol variant, making it a fuel-efficient option. The diesel variants offered even better mileage, up to 23.2 kmpl. I think the fuel efficiency of the Ritz was one of its strong points, appealing to budget-conscious buyers.

Saturday, 09 February 2013 03:56 PM Maruti Ritz Facelift and New Variants: In earlier years, Maruti Suzuki launched a facelift of the Ritz, introducing new variants like the ZDi. This update included several cosmetic changes and additional features to attract more buyers. I believe these updates were a good attempt to revamp the model, but ultimately, it couldnt save the Ritz from being discontinued.

Thursday, 08 September 2011 09:16 PM Performance and Comfort of Ritz VXi ABS: The Ritz VXi ABS was praised for its smooth maneuverability, good suspension, and effective air conditioning. However, it had some drawbacks like body roll at high speeds and a lack of seat height adjustment. I think the Ritz VXi ABS offered a good balance of performance and comfort, making it a reliable choice for daily driving.

Mileage

Friday, 22 November 2024 06:26 AM The Maruti Ritz VXi ABS offers commendable fuel efficiency, which is a crucial factor for many Indian buyers. With an ARAI-certified mileage of 17.6 kmpl, real-world mileage typically ranges between 16 to 17 kmpl, depending on driving conditions. This makes the Ritz a cost-effective choice for daily commuting and long drives, helping to keep running costs manageable.

I am riding Ritz since two years. It's a good car for small family of four members. The overall design is nice and different. Most of it, it's a fuel efficient car which is the prime need of every buyer. Initially, I got 12kmpl average through this car which later improved to 14kmpl. Yes, now it is constant at 14. I believe it depends upon the driving skills also that how well you treat your car. I always drive at moderate speed with less gear shifting. Ergonomically, its really amazing with good rolling of seats. The front seats are good enough to provide clear visibility of the road thanks to high driving position. The rear seats are also comfortable for long tours and it support lots of spaces for needy stuff. Overall, it provides smooth drive even with 5 on-board passengers. I must recommend this car to everyone.
