Q. What about LXi, is base model suitable or not? At this price which is best car among Ignis or Swift LXI?

Yes Swift lxi is base model. You may not get all features in this model as compared to vxi or zxi. Ignis is also good but Swift is ruling in India since last 10-15 years and has been very successful

IGNIS is a pseudo car Maruti introduced to attract the Neo Rich , who having come into a load of cash without ever earning it, wanted to spend without any thought for quality, just to show off.

Ignis is smaller and more toy like. Swift is sportier and larger.
