On April 11, Jeep launched the refreshed New Gladiator and limited-edition 41 Edition in the South Korean market. The updated model features refined styling and an enlarged infotainment display for an enhanced user experience.
The Gladiator, Jeep’s body-on-frame midsize pickup truck, maintains its iconic design elements, including the angular body and pronounced wheel arches. The seven-slot grille has been streamlined, and the headlamp graphics have been updated for a fresh look.
Inside, the Gladiator boasts an intuitive layout with physical buttons for key vehicle functions on the dashboard. The centerpiece is an expanded 12.3-inch main display supporting wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and T Map navigation.
The Gladiator’s open-air freedom is maximized through the Freedom Top, three-piece hardtop, removable doors, and foldable windshield. Jeep has also thoughtfully included storage space for the removed door tops.
Under the hood, a V6 gasoline engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission delivers 284 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels, enabling a maximum towing capacity of 2,721 kg (6,000 pounds).
The new Gladiator is equipped with an Alpine audio system and premium Nappa leather seats. It also has advanced driver assistance features, including an enhanced brake assist system, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision warning.
Jeep also offers a limited run of nine New Gladiator 41 Edition models, commemorating the iconic Willys MB with exclusive colors and design elements.
Pricing for the New Gladiator Rubicon starts at 85.1 million KRW (approximately $59,500), while the New Gladiator 41 Edition is priced at 85.6 million KRW (approximately $59,000).
