New Maruti Ritz Vxi (ABS) BS IV (Petrol) Review here.
Maruti Suzuki Ritz is yet another impressive tallboy hatchback from Maruti Suzuki. Based on the Swift platform, the brilliance of the Ritz lies in its tall roofline. This allows a relatively high seating position for its occupants. The adjustable height of the seats gives the driver more enjoyment while driving, thereby providing him or her with overall ease of mind. The high roof allows increased cabin space and more seating and travel comfort. The dash mounted gearshift makes an overall impression and gives a relaxed driving position to the driver. It also allows smoother gear shifting.
The waterfall console has a silver lining. The two-tone dashboard provides a superior sense of luxury to the interiors. Moreover, the interiors and cabin of the Ritz are gifted with a multitude of storage options that make the cabin easily accessible and more convenient to use. To enumerate, the under-seat utility tray and the dash mounted coin holder are handy storage spaces that increase the convenience and provide more utility to the driver and occupants. For the comfort of the driver and occupants, there is a seat height adjuster that provides lateral movement, reclining movement, and adjustable one-way height that lets the occupants sit in an upright position and also that the driver can get a clear view of the road.
For day-to-day driving pleasure and for easily driving through crowded places, the Ritz includes tilt adjustable steering for adding confidence and comfort to driving. Therefore, the steering can be tilted slightly so that its height can be adjusted for comfortable driving. Another fabulous design innovation is the provision of audio controls on the steering, so that the driver does not need to access the audio player on the dashboard.
This makes driving safer while giving a lot of convenience. Moreover, the inbuilt stereo MP3 player with controls on the steering wheel provides the driver or the occupants an opportunity to listen to music in style. The MP3 player is theft protected, so you can leave your car in the parking lot with complete peace of mind. However, the integrated stereo is available only on the Zxi variant.
