One of the hottest new vehicles on the market is the 2021 Jeep Gladiator. This model checks a lot of boxes for buyers, especially those looking for a truck that comes packed with features. While the 2021 Jeep Gladiator comes in several different trims, one of the more popular options is the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport. Below are just a few of the top features of this model to help you decide if this truck is right for you.
Both a Pickup Truck and Jeep
For starters, the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport is a combination of both a pickup truck and a Jeep Wrangler. It has the body and cab of a Jeep while giving you the extra storage space with a pickup truck bed. This means you can get the experience of driving around in a Jeep, including the open-air feeling, without sacrificing on rear storage space. If you’ve been torn about whether you should get a Jeep or a pickup truck, now you don’t have to decide between the two.
V6 Engine
Inside the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport is a powerful V6 engine. The standard engine is a 285-HP, 3.6-liter V7 engine that uses regular gas. However, you also have the option of getting a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport with a 260-HP, 3.0-liter V6 engine that uses diesel. In either case, you’re getting an engine that is more than capable of handling the most common tasks of a jeep or pickup truck.
In addition, with the standard engine, you can expect around 16 mpg fuel efficiency in the city and 23 mpg on the highway. These are both good efficiency ratings and won’t have you spending too much on gas, regardless of where you drive.
Powerful Towing and Hauling Capabilities
One of the main reasons to get a Jeep or pickup truck is due to their towing and hauling capabilities. Luckily, the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport is more than capable of handling these tasks. With this model, you can easily haul up to 1,700 lbs and tow up to 4,000 lbs. This is typically plenty for the average user. Unless you have something very heavy to haul or tow around, you should find that the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport handles both your hauling and towing just fine.
Comfortable Ride
As with any car, one of the most important things to consider is how comfortable the ride is. If you’re going to spend a lot of time driving around, you want an enjoyable vehicle. The 2021 Jeep Gladiator provides several features that make the ride more comfortable for drivers and passengers alike. For example, both the seats and the steering wheel are adjustable, allowing you to give yourself enough room based on your specific size.
In addition, the seats are a comfortable fabric and provide plenty of space for everyone. This model fits five people comfortably, with the two front occupants getting bucket seats. There are also temperature control options for when you have the cab closed up, allowing everyone inside to ride in comfort.
Off-Road Capabilities
Another common reason for wanting a Jeep or pickup truck is the off-road capabilities. If you plan to take your vehicle off the beaten path, you’ll want something that can handle all the bumps and rocky roads.
With the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport, you get Jeep’s 4×4 system, which gives it great traction on all surfaces. There are also 11 inches of clearance between the bottom of the vehicle and the ground, helping to ensure nothing damages the bottom of your truck. Finally, the heavy suspension system on the Gladiator Sport, along with installed traction-control systems, helps you navigate even the toughest of terrains.
Infotainment System
The onboard infotainment system brings some of the most advanced technology to the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport interior. With it, you can easily navigate your media and other car settings through the large touchscreen. It’s also fully compatible with both Apple and Android devices, allowing you to connect your smartphone. You can then get directions from your favorite navigation app or listen to music from your favorite streaming service. It also keeps your device charged so that you’re not out of battery after a long drive.
Quality Audio System
Whether you’re listening to your favorite music streaming service, the radio, or a podcast, you’ll want crystal clear audio. The 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport comes with eight speakers throughout the vehicle. You can also upgrade to more premium speakers for an even better sound. Either way, this model also comes with a speed-sensitive volume feature, which raises the volume of your audio when you’re traveling at faster speeds so that you don’t miss anything.
Safety Features
Last but certainly not least are all the safety features that come with the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport. For starters, this model comes with occupant sensing airbags. That means if the truck detects someone sitting in a seat during a collision, it will deploy the airbags to keep them safe. These airbags are also numerous, with both front and side airbags for the front occupants.
In addition to the airbags, there are systems in place to help you keep control of the vehicle in emergency situations. For instance, the Anti-Lock Braking System detects when a wheel locks up and pulses the brakes to help maintain control over the vehicle. There are also stability control systems, which can turn on when a car begins to skid or is in danger of flipping over. These are just a few of the numerous features that help keep all occupants of the 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport safe.
