2025 Jeep® Gladiator Rubicon Now Available In South Korea

The 2025 Jeep® Gladiator Rubicon (JT) is officially on sale in South Korea, bringing rugged trail performance, open-air adventure, and modern tech to a growing crowd of pickup enthusiasts abroad.

Built on Jeep’s legendary 4×4 heritage, the Gladiator Rubicon is more than just a pickup—it’s a go-anywhere, do-anything truck that combines real-deal off-road chops with practical everyday usability.

Trail-Ready, Built to Haul – 

Under the hood is a proven 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, pumping out 285 horsepower and 36 kg·m (260 lb-ft) of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Jeep’s rock-solid four-wheel-drive system and wide Dana M210/220 axles provide serious strength and control when navigating tough terrain or towing heavy gear. With a max towing capacity of 2,721 kg (roughly 6,000 lbs), it’s ready to pull boats, trailers, or camping rigs without breaking a sweat.

Built Like a Tank, Styled for Freedom – 

The Gladiator Rubicon rides on a body-on-frame chassis designed for durability and off-road dominance. Front and rear steel skid plates guard the undercarriage, and it features the only electronic front sway bar disconnect system in its class, improving wheel articulation in rugged conditions. There’s even a trail camera up front to help spot obstacles on tough trails.

Up front, Jeep’s signature seven-slot grille gets a modern refresh, paired with stealth-style trail-ready antennas tucked into the windshield frame. The front windshield uses Corning® Gorilla® Glass for extra durability.

The Gladiator is also the only pickup in its class to offer a full open-air experience, thanks to a modular three-piece hardtop, removable doors, and a fold-down windshield. It’s a Jeep thing—and now it’s available in Korea.

Smart, Comfortable, and Loaded – 

Inside, the Gladiator packs top-tier comfort with premium Nappa leather seats, 8-way power adjustment, heated front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The 12.3-inch touchscreen runs the latest Uconnect 5® infotainment system, including wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto™, and native TMAP navigation support.

Safety features are extensive, with side curtain airbags, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, forward collision warning, rear parking sensors, and more.

Storage is also a strong suit—there’s a rugged truck bed, door net pockets, and even hidden locking storage under the rear seat for when you’re rolling without doors or a top.

Pricing – 

The 2025 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon is available in South Korea as a single, fully loaded trim. Pricing starts at ₩85,100,000 KRW (around $62,000 USD). Jeep Korea also offers significant tax perks due to its truck classification—including a low annual vehicle tax, reduced acquisition tax, and VAT benefits for businesses.

Buyers who take delivery in May after placing April orders will receive a limited-edition Helinox Tactical Field Office Cube—a rugged piece of outdoor gear perfect for overlanding or car camping.

Jeep’s CEO in Korea Speaks Out – 

“Gladiator has already proven itself in North America by winning the 2020 North American Truck of the Year,” said Bangsil, CEO of Stellantis Korea. “As demand for premium outdoor lifestyle vehicles grows, we’re confident the new Gladiator will deliver freedom and adventure to Korean drivers like never before.”
