Originally introduced for 2020, the modern Gladiator is named after a Jeep pickup that was sold from 1962-1971. The 3.6-litre V6 engine under the hood delivers 285 horsepower and is shared with the Wrangler, but there’s also an EcoDiesel alternative that provides 260 horsepower and as much as 442 lb-ft of torque. The Gladiator is available in five separate models, all of which boast remarkable off-road capability. Too bad the cargo bed is fairly short.
Pros
- More comfortable than the Wrangler
- Varied range
- Incredible off-road capabilities
Cons
