Rumors about the arrival of a new Jeep pick-up were getting louder and louder, but no one could know for sure what the final result would be. Now that we have seen it, we can agree that it was worth the wait and that the latest pick-up is still interesting.
Jeep Gladiator it's just between us after all. It is one of the best-kept secrets and one of the most anticipated cars. Jeep's semi-truck, or pick-up, is based on the version Wrangler, and surprise with 'extras' that you won't find in other pick-ups. We can imagine a cabin with removable the roof, foldable windshield glass, but we can even remove it if desired door. But it's not just a Wrangler with an added caisson. Gladiator is full aluminum, to reduce weight, to overcome the most difficult terrain, and can boast of the top ones undercarriage. Ride on 33-inch robust off-road tires, it can pull almost 3,500 kilograms and transports 725 kilograms cargo.
Under the hood of the new Jeep Gladiator we will find a familiar face 3.6 liter V 6 cylinder with 285 horsepower. It will be available for shifting 6-speed manual transmission or 8-speed automatic transmission. In 2020, it should come to the market again 3.0-liter 6-cyl diesel with 260 horsepower. The semi-truck will be available towards the end of the second half of next year.
