A sturdy, comfortable and fun to drive car in the segment

Look and Style: It doesn't look good from the back, but overall the looks are good. Quite different from the other small cars available in the market. Comfort: From a driver's perspective it's a delight to drive. The gear shift is on the centre console and very very handy. I have loved to drive it, especially on long highway runs. The viewing area up front is also large. So driving, even in traffic is fairly easy. Even at the back, the seating is very comfortable, with good thigh support and leg space. It also doesn't feel as upright as the Wagon R. Pickup: I had driven the Spark and Indica earlier and compared to the two, the pickup is good. On the expressway, the Ritz zooms to over 100 kmpl with ease, just a slight pressure on the accelerator and the car speeds up. Even on inclines (ghat roads) with 4-5 adults and luggage, the car shows no signs of getting tired. Mileage: Contrary to what some people have said on this site, my Ritz purchased in 2010 gives me decent average, between 14-17 kmpl. Best Features: The high gear shift on the centre console. Needs to improve: Looks at the rear, including the light cluster should be redone. Overall Experience: Good. If you can look beyond the overall exterior design of the car, then u won't regret buying it at all.
