There isn’t another pickup truck in this class with the rugged, playful vibe of the Jeep Gladiator’s exterior. The seven-slot grille has been slimmed down and now comes with black textured slots, neutral gray metallic bezels, and a body-color surround on certain trims. On the Willys, there are gloss black slots and bezels. Jeep claims the vertical slots improve cooling, and it serves one other purpose: identifying the truck as a Jeep.
Elsewhere, the 2024 model has a new trail-ready stealth antenna integrated into the front windshield, replacing the older steel mast antenna. This change reduces the chances of snagging trees or brushes on the trail.
There are seven new wheel designs to choose from, while standard 17-inch steel wheels make way for alloys with various finishes on upper trims. Tires differ by trim, too, with the Willys getting 32-inch mud-terrain rubber in place of the 33-inch all-terrain tires on models like the Mojave and Rubicon.
The new Jeep Gladiator pickup truck’s open-air options are truly unique in this segment. A premium soft-top is now standard, but customers can also choose from two hardtops, a Sunrider for Hardtop option with the dual-door group with half doors, and even fully removable doors. The total number of configurations is staggering, but it means the Gladiator can be specified for each customer’s needs.
