Behold: The 2020 Jeep Gladiator
Jeep enthusiasts have been begging and dreaming for it for years. We want the same four-wheel-drive unstoppability and timeless style of the Jeep Wrangler, with the functionality and cargo space of a pick-up truck. Well, the wait is almost over. Meet the 2020 Jeep Gladiator.
Jeep revealed the new model at this year’s Los Angeles Auto Show, the first of many events in the new auto-show season, where automakers reveal future plans for updates and brand new models. The first Jeep pick-up since the last Comanche was produced in 1992, the Gladiator will offer the same performance and four-door design as the current Wrangler but with the addition of a flatbed in the rear. It will also have an impressive 7,650-pound towing capacity, as well as the capability to handle a 1,600-pound payload, plus a three position tailgate and rollup cover for the bed.
Unquestionably a truck and instantly recognizable as a Jeep, the all-new 2020 Gladiator is the ultimate vehicle for any outdoor adventure. There is tremendous demand for this unique vehicle from our loyal Jeep customers and pickup truck buyers everywhere. Born from a rich and proud heritage of tough, dependable Jeep trucks, Gladiator combines rugged utility, versatility and functionality resulting in the most capable midsize truck ever.
