While the Wrangler is available with two doors or four, the Gladiator comes in one cab size, with four doors and a single bed measuring five feet. The Gladiator was new to the US market in 2019 as a ’20 model, with the “JT” codename, derived as a variant from the JL Wrangler when that arrived all-new as a 2018 model. The refreshed Gladiator debuted today at the Detroit auto show, where Jeep will be offering consumer test rides of various vehicles on an improvised off-road track inside Huntington Place.

The 285-hp 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 carries over as the only available powertrain for the Gladiator, with a standard six-speed manual or optional eight-speed automatic transmission. We learned last spring about upgrades to the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, so it seems fitting that its pickup truck platform mate, the Gladiator, receives the same enhancements, also for the ’24 model year. New for ’24 is the Jeep Adventure Guide, a catalog with detailed maps of 3000 Jeep-ready trails, all of them rated by level of difficulty and easily accessible on the new 12.3-inch vertical Uconnect touchscreen.The Gladiator Willys trim brings newly standard Tru-Lok rear axle locker, trailer tow with programmable auxiliary switches, and an Off-Road+ mode to adjust throttle and transmission shift points.The 2024 Jeep Gladiator retains its 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, but a 4xe plug-in-hybrid option will not be offered, at least in the near future.
