Is the Ritz a good first car to buy for new drivers in 2024?

As a first car the Ritz is still relevant. It's easy, it's reliable, and it's not going to cost a fortune. Ideal for getting started.
What has been the effect of the Maruti Tour H3 on the livelihood of Indian taxi drivers?

For taxi drivers, the Tour H3 has been a game changer. If it’s low cost and fuel efficient, they end up with more money in their pockets at the end of the day.
What has been the effect of the Maruti Tour H3 on the livelihood of Indian taxi drivers?
30 December 2024 09:07
I'm not so sure. The popularity of the Tour H3 has flooded the market with taxis, and it is getting increasingly difficult for drivers to make a living. It's a race to the bottom.

It's a mixed bag. Great, the Tour H3 is cheap to run, but it’s not the most comfortable car for drivers who spend 12+ hours a day in it.

Traditional taxi drivers have leveraged the Tour H3 to compete with ride sharing services. And because it's reliable, you have less downtime and a more consistent earnings stream.

We shouldn't forget that the Tour H3's simplicity means that drivers can do basic maintenance on their own, saving on garage costs. That’s a big deal for their bottom line.
The Maruti Tour H1: Is it really just a stripped down Alto for taxi drivers or does it have some hidden gems?
30 December 2024 08:19
I've driven both the regular Alto and the Tour H1 and to be honest, the differences aren't that much different from those that people make it out to be. Of course, you lose some bells and whistles, but the heart and soul of what makes the Alto great is still there. I kinda dig the Tour H1 feeling more purpose built.

30 December 2024 08:19
Are you kidding me? The Tour H1 is a total downgrade. Back no power windows, cheaper interior materials and that speed limiter that is so annoying? They took all the fun out of the Alto and left us with a soulless econobox.

I believe neither of you are getting the point. The Tour H1 is not meant to be compared to the regular Alto, it is meant for a particular purpose. It’s actually pretty brilliant for taxi drivers who need reliability and low running costs. Less is sometimes more, right?

Hidden gems? It’s more like hidden cost cutting! Maruti is just trying to get more profit out of old platform. If they actually cared about taxi drivers they'd find better safety features instead of stripping them down.

I used a Tour H1 for my small business, and it has its merits. It’s a simplified design and it has fewer things to break, and it’s easy to maintain. On top of that, the fuel efficiency is no joke, it's a real money saver in the long run.

You’re missing the point here, you guys. A few mods and the Tour H1 could make for a great base for a budget rally car or autocross machine. You strip it down even further, throw in some performance bits and now you have a fun little pocket rocket!

I feel that we all are forgetting that cars like the Tour H1 are the ones that are helping keep transportation affordable in India. That's not something everyone can afford to splurge on fancy features, but if this does help keep taxi fares down, well, isn't that a good thing for everyone?

The Swift is the Nokia 3310 of cars: it does the job, it’s reliable, but there’s much more exciting stuff out there now.
Is the Swift the best first car for new drivers in India?

For learning, yes. For buying, maybe not. It’s a great thing to learn on, but new drivers might want something a bit more premium for their first purchase.

It's still probably in the top 3 but not necessarily number one. There's strong competition from the likes of the i10 and the Punch now.
