Engine Power and Options

V-6 Dominance

Dive into the heart of the 2024 Jeep Gladiator’s performance with its powerful V-6 engine that delivers robust power for an exhilarating driving experience. No matter which trim level you choose, the Jeep Gladiator packs a 3.6-liter V-6 that generates a stout 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque.

The engine creates a broad torque band with an emphasis on low-end torque, which is critical for off-roading and transporting heavy loads. It pairs with either a six-speed manual transmission that offers a class-leading crawl ratio of up to 84:1 or an optional eight-speed automatic transmission with a maximum crawl ratio of 77:1. Every Gladiator uses a four-wheel-drive (4WD) system to deliver excellent traction both on and off the road.

Ample Power for Any Situation

The V-6 power plant of the Gladiator is potent enough to meet the transportation needs of any driver. Whether driving around town or cruising on the highway, you’ll have plenty of power at your disposal. This engine is also capable of handling strenuous driving tasks such as climbing steep mountain roads, towing or hauling heavy loads, and getting out of sticky off-road situations.

Trail-Rated Off-Road Prowess

Off-Road Mastery

Similar to other Jeep vehicles, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator really shines where the pavement ends. All Gladiator models wear the Trail-Rated or Desert-Rated badge, which is only awarded to vehicles that have passed a series of rigorous off-road tests.

Even the base Sport trim performs admirably well off the beaten path. It’s equipped with off-road features such as standard 4WD, a two-speed transfer case, solid front and rear axles, traction control, four-wheel disc brakes, skid plates, tow hooks, and all-terrain tires.

If you’re planning to do hardcore off-roading, you’ll be better off getting the Rubicon. This off-road specialist can go anywhere with upgrades such as a Rock-Trac part-time transfer case, an electronic front sway-bar disconnect, front- and rear-axle lockers, solid front and rear axles with a 4:10 axle ratio, steel rock rails, and 33-inch all-terrain tires. The Rubicon X kicks things up a notch by adding a full-time transfer case, front and rear steel bumpers, and an integrated off-road camera. There are also the Desert-Rated Mojave and Mojave X trims, which are specially built for high-speed desert runs.

Advanced 4WD Systems

One of the main reasons why Jeep vehicles are head and shoulders above their competitors in terms of off-road capability is because of their cutting-edge 4WD systems. The 2024 Jeep Gladiator offers a choice of four 4WD systems to cater to the needs and preferences of different drivers, including:

  • Command-Trac part-time transfer case: This 4WD system is designed to improve traction in slippery and extreme weather conditions. It also does a decent job of climbing rocks, thanks to its low-range ratio of 2.72:1.
  • Selec-Trac full-time transfer case: The Selec-Trac system offers greater flexibility and improved fuel economy. It uses two-wheel drive on paved roads to maximize gas mileage and automatically switches to 4WD when you need more traction to overcome rocks, mud, ice, and snow.
  • Rock-Trac part-time transfer case: Rock-Trac is a heavy-duty system built for tackling the most challenging off-road obstacles. A 4:1 low-range ratio produces the torque needed to crawl over rocks and get out of deep ruts.
  • Rock-Trac full-time transfer case: This system is similar to the Rock-Trac part-time 4WD system, but it operates in 4WD mode by default. In contrast, a vehicle with a part-time transfer case primarily uses two-wheel drive as long as conditions allow.

Towing and Payload Capability

Towing Dominance

Besides being an outstanding off-roader, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator is an exceptionally capable workhorse. When properly equipped, the Jeep pickup can tow up to 7,700 pounds, which is the best rating for a gasoline-fueled midsize truck. With this towing capacity, you can lug a wide array of trailers and outdoor recreational equipment, including jet skis, ATVs, dirt bikes, a boat, a horse trailer, or a travel trailer.

Payload Versatility

In addition, the Jeep Gladiator is the most capable 4WD cargo hauler in its class, delivering an incredible payload rating of 1,725 pounds. Whether you need to transport building materials, landscaping supplies, agricultural produce, or a few farm animals, you can count on this truck to get the job done.

Innovative Technology Features

Off-Road Pages

To make off-roading easier and safer, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator comes with an innovative technology feature called the Off-Road Pages. This app provides real-time performance metrics to help you monitor your truck and surroundings during off-road adventures. One of the most useful pages is Pitch and Roll, which shows the current angle of your vehicle.

Connectivity and Entertainment

For the 2024 model year, every Jeep Gladiator receives a large 12.3-inch touch-screen display as standard equipment. This advanced display houses the award-winning Uconnect 5 interface and provides better visibility in open-air conditions. Furthermore, the Jeep truck offers a wide range of desirable tech features, including wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, Amazon Alexa, satellite radio, hands-free voice recognition, and the new-for-2024 Jeep Adventure Guides with Trails Offroad.
