When most people picture a Jeep® vehicle, an image of the iconic Jeep Wrangler comes to mind. For over thirty years, this rugged SUV has been loved by drivers across America. If you're in the market for a new car, you might be considering this capable model, and rightfully so. Before you commit, you should meet the Jeep Gladiator. As a newer addition to the Jeep brand lineup, this pickup offers Atlanta drivers a chance to do even more in their Jeep vehicle.
Performance and Capability
- Engine Type: Both the Jeep Gladiator and Jeep Wrangler are equipped with a standard 285-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine with Stop-Start Technology. Drivers who prefer diesel can upgrade either vehicle to the 260-horsepower 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 engine.
- Towing Capacity: Although these models have similar engines, they vary in the amount of weight they can transport. The Jeep Wrangler can tow up to 3,500 pounds when powered by the standard 3.6-liter engine.* Using the same standard engine, the Jeep Gladiator can tow a maximum capacity of 7,650 pounds.**
Exterior Features
- Top Material: Both the Jeep Gladiator and Jeep Wrangler come with a standard Black Sunrider Soft Top but are available with other soft, hard, and mesh top options for an exhilarating off-road experience.
- Additional Cargo Space: Perhaps the most noticeable difference between these two models is the five-foot-long pickup bed found on the Jeep Gladiator. This creates a payload of 1,700 pounds compared to the 1,233-pound payload of the Jeep Wrangler.
Interior Features
The Jeep Gladiator and Jeep Wrangler come with similar standard entertainment, convenience, and comfort features, including:
- Uconnect® 3 eight-speaker sound system with 5-inch touchscreen display
- Audio jack input for mobile devices
