Down below we are going to be discussing more about this vehicle, including what makes the EcoDiesel so special!
Can you tell me about this engine?
We figured before we get into the nitty-gritty details, it would be good to formally introduce you to what this engine has to offer in the first place. This engine is a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6, which is rated to produce up to 442 pound-feet of torque and around 260 horsepower. Standard with this engine is engine stop-start, along with an eight-speed automatic transmission. There are over forty individual shift maps to help optimize the different shift points. These shift points make sure that you can get the best performance, 4x4 capability, and fuel economy. As you can tell just by one look, this EcoDiesel is ready to make an impact.
What changes have been made to this engine?
Jeep wants to ensure that every time they make a change to a vehicle or an engine, that it’s actually positively affecting everything around it. Some of these improvements include a redesigned cylinder head intake port, exhaust gas recirculation system design, lightweight aluminum alloy pistons, a new-generation water-cooled turbocharger with variable geometry turbine, an optimized compression ratio, high-pressure direct-injection fuel injector nozzles, and a forged steel crankshaft. These different changes make sure that this is an engine that will last for years to come.
What kind of features might the Gladiator come with?
Beyond just the engine, other aspects of the Gladiator are important to take a look at, too. That’s why some of the features you’ll find here include a 5-inch display, cloth seats, LED interior lighting, lockable rear and behind-seat storage, trailer sway control, and push-button start. Some of the higher available features you might find include leather-trimmed seats, remote start, rear defroster, a sliding rear window, LED center-console lighting, a 7-inch display screen, and dual-zone climate control.
