How will the Jeep Gladiator change for 2024?
The Gladiator is going to get a mid-cycle refresh for 2024! Although we don’t have all the details yet, we know that these trucks will sport new design, inside and out. This means a new grille with bolder style and mesh backing. New headlights will be integrated into the grille rather than sitting on top. Inside, you’ll find soft-touch cabin materials and new dashboard contrast stitching. These new Gladiators are also rumored to come standard with the Uconnect 5 infotainment system, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto!
Rumor has it that these midsize trucks may introduce a new plug-in hybrid powertrain, known in Jeep lingo as the 4xe. With the 4xe powertrain, you may also enjoy Jeep’s Power Box, a 30-amp box with four 120-volt power outlets.
Will there be any performance upgrades for the 2024 Jeep Gladiator?
It looks like this new truck will be the one that finally brings the 4xe plug-in hybrid powertrain to the Gladiator lineup! In the Wrangler, the 4xe combines a four-cylinder engine with dual electric motors to generate 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. In the Gladiator, we hope to enjoy even more torque! But we’ll have to wait for Jeep to release the official specs before we can say for sure.
Potential 2024 Gladiator powertrain options include:
- 3.6-liter V6 (285 horsepower, 260 lb-ft of torque)
- 3.0L turbodiesel V6 (260 hp, 442 lb-ft)
- 4xe four-cylinder plug-in hybrid powertrain (375 hp, 470 lb-ft)
- Eight-speed automatic transmission
- Four-wheel drive
Which features will be available for the 2024 Jeep Gladiator?
Standard 12.3-inch touchscreen aside, we think the 2024 Gladiator will have lots of comfort and convenience features in common with last year’s model.
Last year, shoppers could choose between the base Sport, increasingly comfortable Overland, rugged Rubicon, and desert-racing Mojave trim models. The Sport offers the lowest price on a new Gladiator, plus fun-locking features like a convertible soft top, removable doors, and a fold-down windshield. The Overland adds features that modern drivers crave, such as power windows and door locks, the Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
The Rubicon is a hardcore off-roading truck, delivering everything from Fox shocks to 33-inch all-terrain tires. Finally, the Mojave is specially equipped for dune-hopping, with a reinforced frame, 1-inch front suspension lift, and Fox internal bypass shock absorbers with hydraulic jounce bumpers.
