Before we get into what you can get for features on the Sport, let’s talk about what’s under the hood. There are two engines to choose from, with the base engine being a powerful 3.6-liter V6 that pumps out 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque and pairs with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission. Optional is a diesel-powered version of the V6, which pumps out 260 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque which will come standard with the smooth eight-speed automatic. As for features, all versions of the Gladiator will come with a five-foot bed and seating for five passengers, and the Sport, in particular, comes standard with 17-inch steel wheels with 32-inch tires, dampened tailgate, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, push-button start, an eight-speaker audio system, and a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Other features include trailer sway damping, a soft folding top, and removable doors.

The next trim level is the Overland which is incredibly well-equipped as it comes standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, rear privacy glass, and power windows. You can also get some tech features such as keyless entry, a nine-speaker audio system, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, and a navigation system. Some creature comforts exist, such as dual-zone automatic climate control and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. If you want an option package, there is the High Altitude with several comfort and tech features.

If you need a rugged off-road version of the Gladiator, then you need to check out the Rubicon! It has 17-inch wheels, a 4.10 rear axle ratio for increased towing, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and fenders with increased ground clearance. Other outstanding off-road features include locking front and rear differentials, electronically disconnecting front stabilizer bar, fox shock absorbers, body-protecting rock rails and skid plates, and a special two-speed transfer case. You also get upgraded cloth upholstery!

If you are making a trip to the desert, you will need to check out the Mojave, as it comes standard with a reinforced frame, a transfer case that runs four-wheel-drive at higher speeds, Fox internal bypass shock absorbers, and a 1-inch lift front suspension. You also get a desert-rated badge instead of a trail-rated badge. Like the other trims, the Mojave has various options, including LED headlights, a heated steering wheel, heated front seats, and leather seating surfaces. Several safety systems are also available to keep you and your loved ones secure, including blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, and adaptive cruise control.
