2025 Jeep Gladiator Trim Levels

If you’re a Jeep Wrangler enthusiast but want an open cargo bed, consider the 2025 Jeep Gladiator. This midsize pickup truck is built on the same platform as its sibling and shares many trademark characteristics, including solid axles, strong off-road capabilities, and removable roof panels and doors.

Jeep introduced the Gladiator in 1962, but it was discontinued in 1988 due to production issues. The truck was rereleased in 2019 with a modernized design and distinctive styling elements. Our team at Meadowland of Carmel, your go-to Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR) dealership in New York, compiled this guide to the 2025 Gladiator trim levels and their outstanding features.

What’s New For the 2025 Model?

Following a significant refresh for the 2024 model year, the 2025 Gladiator sees minor changes. Most notable is the discontinuation of the manual transmission. The entry-level Sport trim now comes with power locks and windows. An innovative new Active Cabin Ventilation system is available on select models, allowing you to preheat or cool the Gladiator’s interior via a mobile app. Jeep has added two colors to the truck’s paint palette: a military-inspired olive hue called ’41 and the striking Fathom Blue.

Guide to 2025 Jeep Gladiator Trims

Our Meadowland of Carmel team put together a comprehensive Jeep Gladiator trim comparison to help you determine which one fits your lifestyle and driving needs.

Jeep Gladiator Sport

The entry-level Gladiator Sport is packed with many standard features, such as cloth seats, a manual driver’s seat, and a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic.

Other amenities include Jeep’s Uconnect 5 infotainment system with a 12.3-inch touch screen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility. The Sport has removable doors and roof panels and a fold-down flat windshield for extra air and sunshine.

Jeep Gladiator Nighthawk

Building on the base model, the Nighthawk adds unique styling features, such as Gloss Black 20-inch wheels and dark exterior accents.

Jeep Gladiator Sport S

Upgrades on the Sport S include wireless phone connectivity, forward collision warning, and variable intermittent windshield wipers.

Jeep Gladiator Willys

The Willys trim features a removable soft top and a body-colored front grille with accents. You also get cruise control and additional digital cluster gauges on the dashboard.

Jeep Gladiator Mojave

If you enjoy speeding over sand dunes, the Mojave trim is a savvy choice. Jeep gives this trim its Deseret Rated badge with its specially tuned suspension system, ideal for high-speed off-road conditions. This trim comes with Fox 2.5-inch internal bypass shocks and front hydraulic jounce bumpers to help absorb shocks when landing from dune jumps.

Jeep Gladiator Rubicon

The Rubicon is the pinnacle trim for off-road driving. This exciting Gladiator trim has Jeep Trail Rated features, such as Jeep’s legendary advanced four-wheel-drive system and high clearance for water fording. Its generous ground clearance and articulation features are ideal for rock crawling and climbing over obstacles.

The Rubicon and Rubicon X have Tru-Lok electronic locking differentials, sway bar disconnect, and the Rock-Trac four-wheel-drive system. Heavy-duty Dana 44 solid front and rear axles add exceptional strength and durability to the Rubicon, Mojave, Rubicon X, and Mojave X.

Jeep Gladiator Mojave X

The Mojave X has the same capability and performance features as the Mojave but adds several amenities, including a body-colored hardtop, steel bumpers, and a full-time transfer case. If you want the speed and agility of desert driving with the comfort of a hardbody top, premium sound system, and climate-controlled front seats, the Mojave X is a smart choice.

Jeep Gladiator Rubicon X

Luxury features enhance the Gladiator Rubicon X’s interiors. You’ll appreciate a three-piece hard top that offers protection from the weather and sound control, a premium Alpine sound system, and heated sets. As with the Mojave X, the Rubicon X can take you on rugged and challenging off-road trails while offering various comforts and conveniences.

Performance and Engineering Insights

The 2025 Gladiator doesn’t disappoint when it comes to power and performance. Jeep equips the pickup with a robust engine that can handle rugged trails, muddy roads, sandy dunes, and rocky hills.

Each trim has a 3.6-liter V-6 with 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and four-wheel drive. When properly equipped, the 2025 Gladiator can tow up to 7,700 pounds.

Which Model Is Right for You?

When choosing a car, you should consider your needs, lifestyle, and budget. Our team at Meadowland of Carmel can help you determine which Jeep Gladiator model is best for you. When you compare the Jeep Gladiator models, you may decide one of the lower-tier trims is ideal for fun backcountry adventures. If you enjoy hard-core off-roading, you might prefer the Rubicon or Mojave variants.

Price may also influence your buying decision. The starting MSRP for the 2025 Jeep Gladiator ranges from $38,695 for the Sport up to $61,995 for the range-topping Mojave X. Contact our finance team to learn more about our flexible finance options and lease deals.
