Jeep Gladiator

Jeep has revealed a new iteration of its Gladiator ute in the USA, named after the Mojave desert and targeted at high-performance 4WDs like Ford’s F-150 Raptor. Like other factory-fettled 4X4 utes, the majority of modification to this new 2020 Jeep Gladiator Mojave is centred around specialist suspension.

It's a lofty claim, but Jeep is adamant it can become 'the greenest SUV brand in the world' by 2022 – by adding electrification to all models across its portfolio. The bold claim was made to Australian journalists by Jeep global president Christian Meunier at the launch of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator in New Zealand.

The new Jeep Gladiator has surfaced online ahead of its debut at the Los Angeles motor show, offering an unimpeded view of its Wrangler-based design. The Jeep Gladiator Forum has procured and published photos of the upcoming ute, which will go on sale in the United State next year. In addition to press photos, the forum managed to secure a summary sheet from the press package, revealing the Gladiator will be powered exclusively by a 3.6-litre V6 at the start of its production run.
