2026 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon X

The Gladiator is Jeep's mid-size pickup, blending Wrangler-style off-road ability with a usable truck bed. It squares off against the Toyota Tacoma, Ford Ranger, and Chevrolet Colorado, but none match its trail capability. On-road, the Gladiator feels truck-like with a firm ride, but off-road it is genuinely unstoppable. The cabin is functional and durable, with easy-to-clean surfaces and a removable roof for open-air driving. Locking front and rear Dana 44 axles and a disconnecting sway bar set the Rubicon X apart from the Mojave X and other Gladiator trims. Its 3.6L V6 makes 285 horsepower and pairs with four-wheel drive and a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case for crawling over rocks at idle. The 33-inch all-terrain tires and steel rock rails come standard, so you can hit serious trails without spending extra.
