2021 Jeep Gladiator: Say Hello to EcoDiesel

Every single car or truck on the road has an engine. After all, it’s what propels your vehicle forward. However, not all engines are created equal, and the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine was designed to stand out from the pack. Take a look at its stats in the chart below:

That’s not all this engine is capable of. It also offers an 8-speed automatic transmission, Variable Geometry Turbo technology and wide track axles for increased acceleration, while also providing enough strength to handle low-end torque.

Plus, with the aforementioned 6,500 pounds of torque, you’ll be able to haul larger items such as boats, bikes, or trailers with ease.

Jeep Gladiator Diesel: Off-Roading Compatibility

While the 2021 Gladiator’s diesel engine is great on its own, it’s even better when paired with Jeep’s compelling compatibility features. The Rubicon trim, for example, offers 11.1 inches of ground clearance, allowing the vehicle to ride over rocks and small debris with ease.

Moreover, all Gladiator trims feature Jeep’s Trail Rated® Badge. In earning this title, all vehicles must undergo a series of tests which prove their ability to withstand harsh conditions on tough terrain. With this honor comes notable water fording. A higher air intake and special water sealing allows your Gladiator to ride through streams and creeks of up to 30 inches.

Some other Jeep off-roading perks include higher levels of articulation, Jeep Brand 4×4 systems for increased traction, and precision steering for more accurate maneuverability.
