Powertrain Options

With each trim level, the Jeep Gladiator comes powered by a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine. This engine is able to create 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, which is the power needed to take on the trails as well as tow your equipment.

This engine also features Start-Stop technology. This automatically shuts the engine off when stopped at red lights, which helps conserve gas. With this engine, you can either stick with the standard 6-speed manual transmission or opt for the available 8-speed automatic transmission.

With the manual transmission, the 2020 Gladiator gets an EPA-estimated 16 city/23 highway MPG. The available automatic transmission gets an EPA-estimated 17 city/22 highway MPG.

In the standard base trim level, the Sport, this transmission will let you tow a maximum of 4,000 pounds and carry a maximum payload of 1,700 pounds. If you need even more towing strength, the available 8-speed transmission helps boost the Jeep Gladiator towing capacity to 7,650 pounds. On top of that, this configuration also has a payload capacity of 1,535 pounds.

4x4 Systems

Each 2020 Gladiator comes standard with a 4x4 system as well to help give you great control wherever you go.

• Command-Trac® 4x4 System: This system will help the Gladiator maintain great stability when driving through snow, mud, or any other terrain out on the trails.

• Rock-Trac® 4x4 System: This system, which is equipped in the Rubicon trim level, gives you even more control when off-roading. It can deliver all the torque you need and has a low gear ratio so you can crawl over any obstacle you come across on the trail.

Soft vs. Hard Top

You will also have the choice between a hard or soft top with the Jeep Gladiator. The zipperless Sunrider® soft top is easy to lower and raise whenever you want.

If you choose to get the Freedom Top® hardtop, you can also pop it fully off to enjoy even more fresh air. Even take the doors off and enjoy a true open-air experience!
