Yes, the 2022 Jeep Gladiator is a pickup truck, but it’s so much more. With standard four-wheel drive and high ground clearance, the Gladiator can drive over rocks and hills near Athens, AL. It’s also stout enough to pull a trailer and haul construction supplies. The new Gladiator has an improved standard infotainment system and it’s for sale now at Champion Auto Group.
Capability/Performance
The 2022 Jeep Gladiator has all you need for work or play. It comes standard with 10 inches of ground clearance, and higher trims have 11 inches. Each Gladiator model has four-wheel drive, but Rubicon and Mojave trims have locking differentials and specialized shock absorbers. Huntsville drivers will like the Gladiator’s 5-foot bed for hauling their dirt bikes, ATV’s or camping equipment. Since the Gladiator can tow up to 7,650 pounds, you can also bring along a camper or a boat.
The new Gladiator comes standard with a 285-horsepower V6 engine, but a 260-horsepower turbodiesel motor is available. Both engines can be paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, but only the gas V6 is available with a six-speed manual transmission. People in Madison, AL who are concerned about fuel costs will want the turbodiesel motor, which gets 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. Quick steering and strong brakes keep the Gladiator composed on twisty trails.
Exterior Design
At first glance, the 2022 Jeep Gladiator resembles the Wrangler, but when you look closer, you’ll see that it’s longer and has a cargo bed. Like the Wrangler, the Gladiator has a removable top and doors. A soft top comes standard, but a hardtop is optional. Harvest, AL drivers will like its foldable windshield for a full, open-air driving experience.
Interior Design
Get into the 2022 Jeep Gladiator’s cab and you’ll be enamored with its upright dashboard and easy-to-reach infotainment controls. Base Gladiator models have cloth upholstery, but leather-trimmed seats are available in High Altitude trims. There’s plenty of room to stretch out in the Gladiator, which has 41 inches of back seat leg room. People in Athens will like that the Gladiator’s seats can be stowed in multiple ways and then securely locked in place for when the trail turns rough.
Tech Features
Every 2022 Jeep Gladiator model comes with the Uconnect infotainment system, which is known to be one of the easiest units to operate. Huntsville drivers will appreciate its clear graphics, intuitive menus, and swift responses. Other standard tech features in the new Gladiator include:
- A 7-inch touch screen
- Support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Push-button start
An available 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot can connect up to eight devices within a 50-foot radius.
Safety
You’ll breathe easier knowing that the 2022 Jeep Gladiator offers more than 80 standard and available safety and security features. Its high-strength steel chassis was designed to help direct energy away from the cabin in the event of a crash. People in Madison will feel good about its multiple airbags and standard rearview camera. Optional driver-assist features in the new Gladiator include:
- A forward-facing camera
- Blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic alert
- Adaptive cruise control
