Performance Specs

2020 Jeep Gladiator The Jeep Gladiator offers lots of power under the hood, so you can carry everything you need. It runs on a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine that delivers dependable performance, a fun drive, and powerful towing and payload capacities.

While the Ford Bronco offers additional engines, its 2.3L EcoBoost® base engine doesn’t offer as much power. No matter which engine you choose, though, you won’t be able to tow as much in the Ford Bronco. Plus, without a truck bed, you won’t be able to carry as much cargo.

Max Payload	1,600 pounds	N/A

Interior Space

Inside the Jeep Gladiator, you’ll find seating for five and a user-friendly infotainment system. It comes with comfortable cloth seats and an available classic leather-wrapped steering wheel. While you’ll be able to kick back and relax behind the wheel, your passengers will be able to enjoy lots of space too.

A rear sliding window is available to help you grab things from the truck bed. You can also keep smaller items and valuables in an interior storage compartment. Plus, the cabin is just as versatile as the drivetrain. It’s easy to wash out, so you can quickly get rid of mud, sand, and more.

Spacious 38.3 inches of rear legroom
Lockable and removable storage compartment under the backseats
Water-resistant, removable floormats and drain plugs for easy cleaning

The Ford Bronco only gives you 36.3 inches of rear legroom. In addition to feeling like a tight squeeze, it doesn’t have any hidden storage compartments.

Capability

2020 Jeep Gladiator Above all, the Jeep Gladiator is one tough truck. Whether you’re going down to the shore or taking a ski trip, it can help you tackle all sorts of terrain. That’s because it rides high on a durable suspension and offers several 4x4 systems. Some of the ways it’ll help you deal with difficult driving conditions include:

10-inch ground clearance
40.8-degree approach angle
Trac-Lok® limited-slip differential

The Ford Bronco also offers 4-wheel drive (4WD), but it doesn’t give you the same kind of control you get from a limited-slip differential. It also sits a little lower, with an 8.4-inch ground clearance and a 35.5-degree approach angle.
