New Jeep Gladiator for Sale Bartow FL

Key Takeaways

• The Sarge trim adds a military-inspired option to the Gladiator lineup.
• The Gladiator features a 3.6-liter V6 as its only engine.
• Properly equipped models can tow up to 7,700 pounds.

What’s New for the Gladiator This Year?

Motor Trend reports that one of the biggest additions is the new Sarge trim, which draws on Jeep's military heritage for its styling. Outside of the Sarge's arrival, Jeep isn't making sweeping changes to the Gladiator, so much of the existing truck carries forward into the new model year.

Is There Still Just One Engine for the Gladiator?

Yes. Jeep continues to use its 3.6-liter V6 throughout the lineup, which produces 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft. It mates to an eight-speed automatic, and four-wheel drive is standard across the board.

Why Isn't There a Gladiator 4xe?

Jeep previously planned to add a plug-in hybrid Gladiator using a powertrain related to the system offered in the Wrangler 4xe. Those plans were canceled before the truck reached production.

How Much Safety Tech Is in the Gladiator?

That depends on which Gladiator you choose. The entry-level Sport includes basic cruise control but doesn't offer the active driver-assistance equipment found farther up the range.

Move to the Sport S and front automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control become available. Higher trims can add blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and automatic high beams.

Will the Gladiator's Bed Handle All Your Gear?

Of course! Every Gladiator model uses a four-door crew cab and short bed with a cargo box that measures approximately 5 feet long and 4 feet wide, with roughly 1.5 feet of depth. That works out to 35.5 cubic feet of cargo volume, giving the Gladiator room for equipment that you wouldn't necessarily want riding inside an SUV.

How Much Does the Gladiator Tow?

When properly configured, the Gladiator can tow up to 7,700 pounds and carry a payload of up to 1,725 pounds. Both maximum ratings apply to the Sport with a 4.10 axle ratio. Those numbers change as you move through the lineup. The trail-focused Rubicon, for example, has a max towing capacity of 7,000 pounds and a payload rating of 1,200 pounds.

What Kind of Tech Is in the Gladiator?

Every Gladiator features a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, built-in navigation, and dual USB ports. Higher trims add a 7.0-inch reconfigurable gauge display, while extra USB connections and prewired auxiliary switches are available.

An eight-speaker audio system is standard. Shoppers looking for an upgrade can choose a nine-speaker Alpine premium setup that includes a removable portable Bluetooth speaker.
