The 2022 Jeep Gladiator allows buyers to pick their power through two different legendary engines. Buyers have the option to choose the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine which delivers 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, an ideal partner for the trails or hauling/towing all sorts of cargo. It garners 17mpg in the city and 22mpg on the highway and with the ESS (Engine Start/Stop) feature, fuel economy is boosted even more. The other option is the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine which delivers 260 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque that is mated with Variable Geometry Turbo Technology, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and a 3.73:1 axle ratio. These pairings give the Gladiator incredible acceleration and strength to handle anything and help it garner 22mpg in the city and 28mpg on the highway.
Driving and Handling
The 2022 Gladiator is a beast on the road and it drives smoothly and efficiently through the city, however, it takes the stage in a different light when it leaves the regular road behind. It comes alive in its off-roading capabilities, as it doesn’t simply just drive through tough terrain, it thrives in them. The Gladiator has earned the first-ever Trail Rated badge thanks to the legendary traction, water fording capabilities, impressive maneuverability, high levels of articulation, and incredible ground clearance. Its capabilities are showcased even further depending on the trim that is chosen, as each trim is designed to handle different and unique environments and circumstances. The Rubicon, for example, shines on the rocks, while the Mojave shines within the desert sands. Each trim drives effortlessly through each terrain no matter how tough or simple.
