The 2025 Jeep Gladiator is the midsize pickup that shares much of its DNA with the iconic Jeep Wrangler. Now, in 2025, the Jeep Gladiator will be available with the 4xe electrified option. The plug-in 4xe Wrangler is the number one selling PHEV in North America. The Gladiator hopes to duplicate some of that success. Jeep has promised to offer an electrified version of all Jeep vehicles sold in North America by the end of 2025. Jeep fans have been asking when a Gladiator 4xe would be coming. All Jeep is confirming is that it will happen in the 2025 model year.
2025 Jeep Gladiator
New for 2025, the Jeep Gladiator is offering an option called Active Cabin Ventilation. It allows the driver to use the Jeep Connect mobile app and let the hot air out of the cabin in the summer, before the driver gets in the vehicle.
The Gladiator also has a standard eight-speed automatic transmission. Plus, they are offering two new exterior paint colors for 2025. Fathom Blue and military olive drab-inspired '41 exterior paint color are both new for the Gladiator.
In 2025, the Gladiator is available in Sport, Sport S, Willys, Trail Rated Rubicon and the brand’s only Desert Rated model, Mojave. If you aren’t checking out the 4xe version, the Jeep Gladiator features a standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, rated at 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. The 2025 Jeep Gladiator delivers unmatched capability with unsurpassed 4x4 max towing of up to 7,700 pounds and best-in-class payload of up to 1,725 pounds.
Gladiator is the only pickup truck in the industry with a folding windshield, three removable roof choices and removal doors.
New for 2025, Jeep is rolling back the prices for the Gladiator. 2025 Jeep® Gladiator now starts at $39,995, including destination charges.
"We've listened to our off-road truck community, reducing MSRPs across the lineup and adding standard features, making the appeal of Jeep Gladiator stronger than ever," said Bob Broderdorf, senior vice president of Jeep North America. "Our standout pickup offers a unique combo of open-air driving, best-in-class towing capacity and unequaled off-road chops that’s now more accessible to a wider range of midsize truck intenders."
According to Jeep, the pricing for the 2025 Gladiator models breaks down this way. You must add $1,895 destination to these MSRP prices.
- Sport 4x4 $38,100
- NightHawk $40,895
- Sport S 4x4 $41,600
- Willys 4x4 $45,200
- Mojave 4x4 $51,100
