Jeep Gladiator: The Wrangler-Based Pickup
The Gladiator is Jeep's midsize pickup, combining Wrangler off-road capability and removable-top fun with a usable truck bed.
Launched in 2019, the modern Gladiator brought Jeep back into the pickup market, based on the Wrangler JL. It uniquely combines genuine Wrangler off-road capability, including removable doors, a folding windshield, and an open top, with a practical pickup bed and strong towing.
The Gladiator offers solid axles, available lockers, and the legendary Rubicon trim for serious trail use, making it one of the most off-road-capable trucks available. It revives a name used on Jeep trucks decades earlier.
The Gladiator appeals to buyers wanting open-air Jeep fun and off-road prowess plus the utility of a midsize pickup, a combination no rival offers.
