All new Maruti Ritz revealed

These are the first official images of the updated Maruti Ritz. A car we had scooped earlier in March.

The Ritz is sold as the Suzuki Splash in other global markets such as Japan & also in some countries in Europe. These official pictures have been released on Suzuki's Japan website.

As is evident from the images, the updated Ritz gets a slightly-altered & a lower mounted nose,  & gets a one-piece grille. The headlamps are more pointier & the fenders now rise up above the bonnet 'V'.  The rear-bumpers also get fake air-vents.

The facelifted Ritz will also get minor updates to the interiors & lighter shades. Under the hood, we expect the 84bhp K-series 1.2-litre petrol & the 74bhp 1.3-litre diesel motors mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
