Interior & Exterior Designs Comparison

The 2023 Wrangler is an iconic Jeep flagship SUV that showcases a rugged exterior and a durable interior, letting you tackle adventures in style and confidence. With its Jeep styling elements, such as the seven-slot grille and boxy shape, you can't mistake the new Wrangler for any other SUV. Also, it has removable panels to open up the cabin during off-road trips, letting you bring the great outdoors into the interior throughout your drives.

On the other hand, the new Gladiator shares the same Jeep styling elements, incorporating various designs from the beloved Wrangler. However, it differs by having a truck bed since it's a mid-size pickup truck, giving it an even more aggressive stance. It also has removable panels to deliver Jeep's unique open-cabin driving experience.

Engine Options & Performance Comparison

Multiple engine options are available for the 2023 Jeep Wrangler, including the standard 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine with ESS pairing with a six-speed manual transmission. However, a 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine with eTorque is available, which mates with an eight-speed automatic transmission. As optional on most trims and standard for the Sahara trim levels, a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine provides 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Maximum output is exclusive to the 2023 Wrangler Rubicon 392, featuring a 6.4-litre HEMI V8 engine with 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque.

As standard, the 2023 Gladiator utilizes the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine with a six-speed manual transmission, providing the same output figures of 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. However, an eight-speed automatic transmission is available for the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6, but it's standard with the 3.0-litre EcoDiesel V6 engine. The optional 3.0-litre EcoDiesel engine delivers 260 horsepower and an impressive 442 lb-ft of torque.

Off-Road Capability Comparison

As the ultimate off-road SUV, the new Wrangler is second-to-none, offering superior capability even with standard options alone. Although the 2023 Wrangler is great off-road as standard, opting for the Rubicon trim levels brings additional equipment to enhance its capability further. With the Rubicon trim levels comes features such as a Tru-Lock electronic locking differential, electronic sway bar disconnect, Rock-Trac four-wheel-drive system, Off-Road Plus mode, and 33-inch all-terrain tires.

Like the Jeep Wrangler, the new Jeep Gladiator rivals its segment by offering the best off-road capability. It also comes with great off-road equipment as standard, while its Rubicon trim level brings even more equipment to conquer off-road terrain. You can expect the 2023 Gladiator Rubicon to offer Rock-Trac heavy-duty four-wheel-drive system, Tru-Lok axles, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and performance shock absorbers.
