2025 Jeep Gladiator Sport
The Sport trim begins the lineup of this pickup truck in the new Jeep inventory. It includes base features like a three-position tailgate, a 4x4 system with heavy-duty Dana 44 axles, power one-touch windows, power-locking doors, and removable panels. Plus, you can take advantage of available programmable auxiliary switches, Off-Road Info Pages, and a host of standard safety features, which we explored earlier.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Nighthawk
The Nighthawk trim is the second in the Jeep Gladiator trim levels lineup. It comes outfitted with all of the perks included in the Sport model, with some unique upgrades, such as 20-inch wheels and A/T tires. The Nighthawk is a wonderful combination of affordability, utility, and comfort.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Sport S
There are several Jeep Gladiator trim differences between the Sport S and Sport, but many of them are available as add-ons. Both models have removable soft tops, power-locking doors, power one-touch windows, the same infotainment system, and more. Some available features for the Sport S that you won't have the option to add to the Sport model include the LED Headlamp and Fog Lamp Group, a Gorilla Glass windshield, and premium McKinley-trimmed seats, among others.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Willys
On the Jeep Gladiator Willys, some features that are only available as upgrades on previous trims become standard. For example, the Jeep Gladiator Willys will get you standard LED headlamps, fog lights, and taillights. A Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and cab rock rails also help with off-roading or heading down less-traveled paths. Plus, you'll enjoy signature Willys decals and all-weather slush mats.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Mojave
The Mojave trim level is Desert Rated for traversing arid landscapes, meaning it can challenge sand and dirt and withstand harsh environments. Exclusive FOXâ„¢ 2.5-inch internal bypass shocks and hydraulic jounce bumpers make that task even easier. A 1-inch front lift and cab rock rails help keep the exterior protected, as do 33-inch all-terrain tires.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
The Rubicon trim is one of the most famous Jeep Gladiator trim levels. This model comes with a notable part-time 4:1 low transfer case with up to 84:1 crawl ratio, giving you more control while exploring rough terrain other vehicles couldn't dream of conquering. An electronic sway bar disconnect with locking front and rear differentials can give you more freedom to drive over uneven paths, as can the 33-inch all-terrain tires it comes with.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon X
Consider the Rubicon X trim for a more luxurious ride. This model focuses on combining internal comfort with off-road capability, and a winch-capable steel bumper is how it starts. It adds built-in navigation capabilities to the 12.3-inch infotainment system, an Alpine® premium audio system, and Automatic High-Beam Headlamp Control. The 33-inch all-terrain tires from the previous trim carry over for excellent traction.
2025 Jeep Gladiator Mojave X
The 2025 Jeep Gladiator Mojave X tops the line of Jeep Gladiator trims and remains one of the most unique. This edition carries over many of the features from the previous Mojave trim while adding many of the same upgrades the Rubicon X receives, including a premium Alpine® audio system, Automatic High-Beam Headlamp Control, built-in navigation, and much more. It has signature decals that denote its desert-conquering capabilities, exclusive badging, and more.
State-Exclusive Trims
There are three special-edition models for the 2025 Jeep Gladiator that you'll only find in the state they're paying homage to. These models include the following:
- High Tide (Florida)
- Big Bear (California)
- Texas Trail (Texas)
You may be wondering why we're covering this limited-edition model available in Florida – the short answer is that we're promising a comprehensive 2025 Jeep Gladiator trim comparison, and we intend to deliver just that.
These special models adopt many of the available features from the Sport S as standard while adding some premium upgrades, such as special decals and styling, a removable hardtop for the model, heated 12-way power-adjustable front seats, and leather-wrapped interior controls. Cab rock rails also come standard, and they usually offer available side steps and LED exterior lighting.
Jeep Gladiator Trim Packages: Optional Extras To Enhance Your Favorite Trim
Several packages are available for each Jeep Gladiator trim level. Many of our Jeep Gladiator lease deals come with one or more already pre-applied, but you can also submit a factory order to get exactly what you want. While there are too many to list here, we've assembled an overview of our three favorite trim-and-package combinations below:
- Jeep Gladiator Sport or Sport S with Max Tow Package: available on the two Sport trim levels, this package unlocks the model's 7,700-pound maximum towing capacity.1 It also includes some rather desirable off-roading upgrades, such as all-terrain tires and a Trac-Lok rear differential.
- Jeep Gladiator Willys with Technology Group: taking the midlevel trim further, this add-on turns the Willys into a serious value-packed package, providing upgrades like an Alpine® premium sound system with a wireless speaker, a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and a 400-watt inverter.
- Jeep Gladiator Rubicon with Steel Bumper Group: The Rubicon X trim is noteworthy for having a steel winch-capable front bumper to the truck. However, if you'd rather stick to the standard Rubicon trim, you can still get the same bumper as the Rubicon X by adding this package.
There are, as mentioned, many more packages to discover. Explore our in-stock Jeep Gladiator models today, and if a certain pre-applied package catches your eye, our Jeep experts will be happy to explain everything that it includes.
Discontinued Jeep Gladiator Trim Levels To Look For
The Jeep Gladiator is a great truck, whether it's brand new from the factory or has already seen some fun for a year or two. If you look for pre-owned models in Vermont, there may be a few trim options you come across that are not listed above.
Notably, you'll have to look in our used-car inventory to find a Jeep Gladiator diesel model, as the manufacturer discontinued the EcoDiesel engine from the Jeep Gladiator lineup in 2023. This option can be quite desirable thanks to its low-RPM torque and fuel economy; it can also be found as optional equipment on most of the Jeep Gladiator trim levels from 2020 to 2023.
While there has never been an official Jeep Gladiator Hellcat, there is the Jeep Gladiator High Altitude that was discontinued in 2023 and serves as a powerhouse of Jeep luxury and style. Likewise, the ultimate tribute to the Jeep brand's history can be found in the form of the 2021 Jeep Gladiator 80th Anniversary Edition: a celebration of 80 years of Jeep vehicles. For a celebration of the Jeep Gladiator itself, keep your eyes peeled for (or ask our team to help you find and reserve) a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition: a limited run of 4,190 specially outfitted trucks based on the familiar Rubicon trim, and a likely future collectible.
Jeep Gladiator Capability: Off-Roading & Towing Capacity
If you're concerned with how much you can tow and what you'll be capable of, the Jeep Gladiator is an ideal pick for your next ride. Although it has engine options similar to other Jeep models, like the Jeep Wrangler, it outpaces its counterparts. For example, the Jeep Wrangler can tow a maximum of 5,000 pounds,1 but the Jeep Gladiator can tow a maximum of 7,700 pounds.1
More Jeep model research also paints the Jeep Gladiator as an excellent choice for adventurers. The Jeep Gladiator Rubicon is Trail Rated for its off-road capability, as are most trims, handling rocky terrain with expert ease. Meanwhile, the Desert Rated Mojave is perfect for sand dunes and dry conditions. With features like 33-inch all-terrain wheels, electronic sway bar disconnect, and locking rear differentials, the Jeep Gladiator stands out among its competitors.
What's New for the 2025 Jeep Gladiator Trim Levels?
The exterior and cabin of the 2024 Jeep Gladiator saw some updates, and the Mojave X and Rubicon X were added to the collection this same year. All of these changes have carried over to the new 2025 model, in addition to saying goodbye to the available manual transmission, opting only for an automatic option that gives drivers smooth gear shifting and excellent handling.
Plus, the 2025 edition gets two new color options: Fathom Blue and '41. From a functional standpoint, the model receives an upgrade with active cabin ventilation, which allows drivers to preheat and cool the interior before getting inside.
Here at McGee CDJR, our experts are eager to get you inside the model you adore most, so let us know if you would like to check out a 2024 version or a mildly refreshed 2025 option. What's more, we may be able to help you get Jeep specials and offers on either model year.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jeep Gladiator Trim Levels
Are all 2025 Jeep Gladiator trims available with 4x4?
Every 2025 Jeep Gladiator trim is available with 4x4, or more accurately, every 2025 Jeep Gladiator truck comes standard with a 4x4 system. That's right: Each Jeep Gladiator has 4x4 by default; there are no FWD or RWD Jeep Gladiator trucks, as the model aims to be the top off-roader in the midsize truck world.

There are eight core 2025 Jeep Gladiator trim levels available, including the following:

Which new Jeep Gladiator trim is best for off-roading?
Every 2025 Jeep Gladiator trim is Trail Rated or Desert Rated, meaning it will perform exceptionally well in off-roading situations. That being said, the top four trims – the Mojave, Rubicon, Rubicon X, and Mojave X – add even more nature-loving features to take your trail and desert-conquering capabilities to new heights. These features include upgrades like 33-inch all-terrain tires, special differentials, and more.
Are there any specific features that distinguish each trim level of the Jeep Gladiator?
Each Jeep Gladiator trim stands out with features that are different from the last. The entry-level model, the Sport, has standard features like removable doors, a heavy-duty 4x4 system, and a crisp ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera. On the other end of the spectrum is the Rubicon X, which offers the most luxury with a leather interior, a premium-wrapped steering wheel, and 33-inch all-terrain tires.
What is the highest Jeep Gladiator trim?
The highest trim level for the 2025 Jeep Gladiator is the Rubicon X.
