- Jeep has introduced the Mopar ‘24 Gladiator.
- The model is a Mopar-ized special edition that is based on the Gladiator Rubicon.
- It features unique styling and a two-tone Katzkin leather interior.
With Dodge in the midst of a product transformation, Mopar has turned its attention to Jeep. The result is a limited edition Gladiator that starts at $70,295 before a $1,895 destination fee.
That’s an eye-popping number, but the Mopar ‘24 Gladiator is being billed as the “world’s most off-road capable midsize truck.” However, don’t get your hopes up as the model is largely style over substance.

Without further ado, the special edition is based on the Gladiator Rubicon and features a black exterior with a topographical map of the Rubicon trail. They’re joined by red accents and Jeep Performance Parts logos.
Elsewhere, the truck has been equipped with rock rails, a grille guard, and 17-inch aluminum wheels that a wrapped in Falken all-terrain tires. The model also has a three-piece body-color hardtop, a tonneau cover, and a spray-on bedliner.
Jeep only released one interior picture, but said the model has two-tone Katzkin leather seats with embossed Mopar logos. Other highlights include red contrast stitching, black sill plates, and a Mopar headliner. Buyers will also find grab handles, all-weather floor mats, and a “serialized badge” on the center console.
Power is provided by a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine that develops 285 hp (213 kW / 289 PS) and 260 lb-ft (352 Nm) of torque. However, Mopar didn’t specify if the special edition has an automatic or manual transmission.
Production is limited to 250 units and they’re currently arriving at select dealers. The special edition is exclusive to the United States and buyers will receive a special kit that includes a personalized certificate of authenticity, a special rendering of the vehicle by the Mopar design team, and an 83-piece tool kit.
