This year’s Moab Easter Jeep Safari should have taken place in April but was cancelled because of the coronavirus outbreak.
As a result, Jeep has decided to release its custom concepts to the public one at a time. The first one came last month in the form of the Wrangler Rubicon 392, and now we get to see a second show car: the Gladiator Farout.
Building on the popularity of the Jeep Wayout concept from the 2019 Moab Easter Jeep Safari, the Gladiator Farout is an overlanding vehicle that leverages the Gladiator EcoDiesel’s 4×4 capability and payload, as well as best-in-class fuel range.

The Gladiator Farout features the 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 engine which joins the Gladiator lineup for the 2021 model year. The power plant makes 260 horsepower and 442 lb-ft (599 Nm) of torque. Equipped with engine stop-start (ESS) technology as standard, it returns 28 mpg (8.4 l/100 km) highway.
The main feature of the fully functional concept is a customized deployable roof-top tent measuring 16 feet (4.9 meters) in length and 7.5 feet (2.3 meters) in height. It comfortably sleeps up to four people and conveniently opens and retracts in a matter of seconds.
Beneath the tent in the closed truck bed, the Farout features a wood-lined interior with soft ambient lighting, a fully functional refrigerator and stove, as well as hanging storage racks, built-in seats and table space. Inside the customized cab, the Gladiator Farout sports dark smoke blue leather, orange stitching and plaid flannel seat inserts.
On the outside, the overlanding concept adopts a new “Earl” body color with chartreuse accents on the hood, plus rear tailgate tow hooks, springs, badging and shocks. An integrated roof-rack system allows for hauling additional gear topside.
To easily overcome obstacles, the Gladiator Farout is equipped with a Jeep Performance Parts two-inch lift kit, 17-inch matte charcoal rims shod with 37-inch mud-terrain tires, modified Gladiator Rubicon steel bumper equipped with a 12,000-lbs (5,443-kg) Warn winch, custom front and rear rock rails, and FOX performance shocks.
Jeep doesn’t say anything about a production model but after the very similar Wayout and Farout concepts, it’s about time for a Gladiator-based model overlanding enthusiasts can actually buy.
