Expert opinion and recommendation

The Maruti Suzuki Ritz Diesel ZDi is a robust and reliable choice for those seeking a diesel hatchback in India. My experience with this vehicle has been overwhelmingly positive, particularly in terms of its engine performance and fuel economy. The 1.3-liter diesel engine, producing 75 horsepower and 190 Nm of torque, is punchy and fun to drive, especially once the turbo kicks in around 2000 rpm. The handling is composed, and the hydraulic steering offers good feel and feedback. However, the ride quality can feel stiff, and there is noticeable low-end lag. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Ritz ZDi stands out for its spacious interiors, good headroom, and legroom, making it a practical and comfortable option. The ground clearance is excellent, making it apt for Indian roads. Overall, it is a solid choice for those who prioritize performance, comfort, and fuel efficiency.

Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

The Maruti Suzuki Ritz was discontinued in India in April 2015, marking the end of its production run. This decision was made to make way for new models, such as the YRA, which was under development at the time. The Ritz had seen declining sales, with only 34,500 units sold in the fiscal year 2014-15. I believe this move was necessary for Maruti Suzuki to stay competitive in the market.
April 17, 2015
The refreshed Maruti Ritz diesel saw an improvement in fuel efficiency by 10%, achieving a mileage of 23.2 km/l. This was achieved through reductions in engine friction and optimization of the motors calibration. The new model also introduced three new colors: breeze blue, mystique red, and granite grey. I believe these changes made the Ritz a more attractive option for fuel-conscious buyers.
September 3, 2012
The Maruti Ritz ZDi diesel variant was powered by a 1248cc, 4-cylinder diesel engine that produced 75 PS of power at 4000 RPM and 190 Nm of torque at 2000 RPM. It was mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and could reach 60 km/h from a standstill in 5.9 seconds. I think this engine provided a good balance between performance and efficiency.
September 3, 2012
In 2012, Maruti Suzuki launched a refreshed version of the Ritz diesel, introducing the ZDi trim. This update included several new features such as a new front grille, body side moulding, a new audio system with USB, dual-tone red interiors, and electrically adjustable rear view mirrors. The ZDi variant also came with dual airbags, ABS, alloy wheels, and steering-mounted audio controls. I think these updates significantly enhanced the vehicles appeal and safety.
September 3, 2012
The facelifted Maruti Ritz, including the ZDi variant, was expected to be launched during the festival season in India in 2012. The new version was designed to look more appealing and included features like airbags and ABS as standard in the ZDi diesel variant. I believe this facelift helped in maintaining the Ritzs competitiveness in the market.

This 1.2-liter petrol engine is mated with 5-speed manual transmission that takes this hatchback to a top speed of 155kmph. It has an average mileage of 18kmpl (on highways) and 12kmpl (in city).

The displacement produced by Swift with DDiS diesel engine is 1248cc. This 1.3-liter diesel engine generates power of 74bhp at 4000rpm and the maximum torque produced is 190Nm at 2000rpm. The average mileage of diesel engine Swift is 23kmpl (on highways) and 18kmpl (in city). This hatchback offers the minimum ground clearance of 170mm and boot space of 204liters. The kerb weight of Swift with petrol engine is 960kg, Swift diesel is 1050kg and Swift petrol with Automatic transmission is 990kg. It has electrical powered steering wheel that makes the minimum turning radius of 4.8meters. This hatchback measures 3850mm in length, 1695mm in width, 1530mm in height and a wheelbase of 2430mm. The McPherson strut with coil spring is used as the front suspension and the torsion beam with coil spring is used as the rear suspension. The front tires are provided with ventilated disc brakes and the rear tires use drum brakes.

With all the superior features and specifications, the Swift lacked the important security features like air bags, ABS and parking sensors. However these limitations were removed from the Swift Automatic as it has two front air bags, parking sensors and ABS with EBD. It has air conditioner that supports automatic climate control feature and provides ample cooling and heating of the cabin as per the weather. All the windows are electrically powered and supports auto up/down feature. The fuel filler and boot are remote controlled for the convenience. The rear windshield is equipped with wiper and defogger to provide best view in the internal rear view mirror. The dashboard integrated music system can play MP3, AM/FM and also supports auxiliary inputs.

The steering wheel has mounted control of music system. The ORVMs have mounted side turn indicators. The bumpers and ORVMs have the same color as the body of the hatchback itself. The instrument cluster included in the car consists of dual trip meter, speedometer and tachometer. The standard size of tires used in this hatchback is 185/65 R15 with 15-inch alloys. Maruti is offering Swift with a warranty of 2years/40,000kms. The shades available in Swift are Blazing Red, Torque Blue, Silky Silver, Arctic White, Glistering Grey and Midnight Black. This hatchback has got good looks, high mileage and a powerful engine but its basic variants lack the security features as well as the boot space. Most importantly it is the product of a trusted passenger vehicle company of India.
