A few days ago, we informed you that Mahindra could launch the S101 compact SUV before the 2016 Delhi Auto Expo. And recently, some reports have surfaced revealing the launch to take place in January. Amidst all this, those who are hoping to get some information about the car's official name, well good luck for that because it's still not known. It seems like the company wants to keep everything secret until the launch, even the model name. Although it is likely to be named XUV100, but it is quite unpredictable as to what name will the vehicle carry.
