The Gladiator now showcases a new standard eight-speed automatic transmission, replacing the previous six-speed manual option.
Enhancements in Feature Set
Jeep has introduced several comforts in the 2025 Gladiator. Key standard features now include power windows and locks, alongside the introduction of two fresh paint colors. Additionally, users can pre-condition the vehicle’s cabin through the Jeep Connect app, ensuring a comfortable entry during varying weather conditions. With these enhancements, the Gladiator sees a reasonable base-price increase of 5 compared to its 2024 model, delivering significant value.
Powertrain Specifications and Trim Levels
All variants of the 2025 Gladiator maintain the robust 3.6-liter V6 engine, which produces 285 horsepower and 260 pounds-feet of torque, standardizing the eight-speed automatic transmission across the line. The Gladiator continues to offer four-wheel drive as standard, with an EPA-rated fuel economy of 19 mpg combined. The lineup includes various trims starting from the base Sport at ,995, up to fully outfitted variations like the Rubicon and Mojave, designed for specialized off-road performance. This tailored approach ensures every driver can find a Gladiator that suits their needs while retaining Jeep’s iconic ruggedness.
