In December we had informed about Maruti Suzuki planning to launch a new small car in India. The new car which was earlier named as ‘Splash’ will now enter the Indian car industry with a new name called Ritz. Hailing from the B+ car segment, Ritz is festooned with a host of advanced technologies along with splashy interiors.
Most of the car enthusiasts are aware of this. But we have some more to add onto this. The upcoming model has cleared the whole vehicle test approval ceremony conducted by the International Centre of Automotive Technology (ICAT). After clearing all the tests, Ritz now gets the green signal from ICAT to roll out into the Indian car market.
ICAT is a part of National Automotive Testing and R&D Infrastructure Project (NATRiP) that plays a vital role in the development of automobile industry in the country. At present it’s working on the expansion of its Manesar plant with an investment of Rs 440 Crore. The plant will get an additional land area of 46 acres and will be equipped with a power-train laboratory, engine dynamometers, an emission laboratory with Euro V capability, a passive safety laboratory as well as vehicle test tracks.

I want to know more about this car. Who an help me ?
Maruti Suzuki Ritz is one such car that most of you would be waiting for after the launch of Nano. Have been hearing about the car since last one year and now just waiting for the car to be launched.
But I think that there was another association that was responsible for car testing and approval. I thought it was ARAI. I m not sure of the full name of the association but I read it somewhere that the association verifies and certifies the fuel efficiency of Indian cars.
