We’ve driven the Gladiator, and it is awesome. It comes pumped with rugged Jeep Wrangler heritage combined with pickup utility. For 2021, it receives the military-esque Willys treatment from the Wrangler. Not only does it get the “Willys” iconic text on the hood, but it also benefits from a black roof, black wheels with BFGoodrich KM2 mud-terrain tires, and an intimidating black grille. But it’s not all for show. The Willys Edition comes standard with rock rails and shocks from the Rubicon model, a 2-speed transfer case, and a limited-slip differential. It also comes standard with features such as a 7.0″ touchscreen, automatic climate control, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and a remote start system. The Willys is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine with 285 horsepower, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. Option up to an 8-speed automatic transmission for $2,000, and you can also upgrade the engine to a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 for $4,000 more.
