In India, the Maruti Ritz is available in ten specifications; five equipment levels with either petrol or diesel engine options. The petrol variants are powered by Suzuki's 1.2 liter (1197 cc) K12M petrol engine. This light weight all aluminum engine delivers 85 PS (63 kW; 84 hp) of maximum power at 6000 rpm with 113 N⋅m (83 lb⋅ft) of maximum torque at 4000 rpm. The mileage it delivers on city roads is around 14.5 km/L, and 18 km/L on highways. The diesel variants of Maruti Ritz are powered by Fiat's 1.3-liter Multijet turbodiesel engine. This engine delivers 75 PS (55 kW; 74 hp) power of 4000 rpm with 190 N⋅m (140 lb⋅ft) of torque of 2000 rpm. The mileage it delivers is 17.7 km/L in the city and on the highway: 21 km/L.

A refreshed Ritz was launched in India in 2012. This version sports a new ZDI variant, three new colors, and improved [fuel efficiency](/source/Fuel_efficiency).

The Maruti Suzuki Ritz 2015 model was launched with a redesigned trim. The technical specifications remain unchanged. As part of the upgrades the vehicle received a new front fascia with a new grille, headlamps and bumpers. The vehicle is also sports new optional alloy wheels, new seat upholstery, and a new infotainment system.
