2025 Jeep Gladiator Capability

The Jeep Gladiator’s powertrain has a couple of exciting updates for the 2025 model year. However, there are also many familiar features returning for this lineup! So, what engine powers the 2025 lineup? Across the board, you can find a standard engine, which has been the tried and true choice across the Jeep lineup for many years. This is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, rated at 285 horsepower, and 260 lb-ft of torque. In the Gladiator’s case, it now comes standard with an 8-speed automatic transmission across the board! The Pentastar also comes equipped with a standard engine stop-start (ESS) feature. This powertrain is specifically designed with low-end torque in mind, which helps the Gladiator with its towing, hauling, and off-roading abilities! Specifically, the Gladiator offers a crawl ratio of up to 77:1.

The Jeep Gladiator Mojave proudly carries its Desert Rated badge, proving it can handle the toughest desert conditions. With specially tuned FOX 2.5-inch internal bypass shocks and front hydro jounce bumpers, it’s built to provide a smooth ride and absorb impacts during high-speed runs across sand. It’s been put through rigorous testing in areas like ride control, traction, ground clearance, and desert capability, making it a top choice for off-road enthusiasts. The Mojave comes with features like a Command-Trac transfer case, Tru-Lok rear-axle locker, and heavy-duty Dana 44 axles, all paired with 17-inch aluminum wheels and 33-inch all-terrain tires for maximum performance. You’ll also get design touches like orange accents, steel rock rails, and a performance hood with a center scoop!

The Jeep Gladiator Willys and Rubicon both deliver impressive off-road capability, each with standout features. The Willys comes standard with a Tru-Lok rear-axle locker, Off-Road+ mode, rock rails, 32-inch mud-terrain tires, and trailer tow with programmable auxiliary switches, making it ready for both high-speed off-roading and precise rock crawling. The Rubicon enhances its off-road prowess with a Rock-Trac transfer case, electronic front sway-bar disconnect, Tru-Lok front and rear-axle lockers, heavy-duty Dana 44 axles, and 33-inch all-terrain tires. It also features red accents, steel rock rails, and 17-inch aluminum wheels, combining rugged performance with iconic design.

The Jeep Gladiator really shines when it comes to towing and hauling. With an impressive maximum towing capacity of up to 7,700 pounds and a best-in-class payload of 1,725 pounds, this truck is built to handle your heavy loads. Its sturdy body-on-frame design and finely tuned five-link suspension system provide stability, making it reliable whether you’re towing a trailer or hauling gear. Plus, the lightweight yet strong aluminum closures help improve fuel efficiency without sacrificing strength. The steel cargo bed, reinforced with four cross-members, maximizes utility and includes handy features like integrated tie-downs, under-rail bed lighting, and an optional covered external power source for added versatility!
