CONFIRMED: 2024 Jeep® Gladiator Coming To Detroit Auto Show!

The upcoming 2023 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit has been generating anticipation, particularly among Detroit’s Big-3 automakers. Stellantis, in particular, has only one press event scheduled for the show, and Jeep® has recently provided some exciting details about what they’ll be unveiling.

Jeep® has announced a press conference scheduled for Wednesday, September 13th, at 11:05 a.m. EDT, and the big news is that they will be showcasing the updated 2024 Jeep® Gladiator (JT).

This revelation follows a teaser from Jeep earlier on, where they invited enthusiasts to witness the live unveiling. While the official announcement didn’t explicitly mention the Gladiator, a closer look at the teaser materials reveals multiple images of a Gladiator Rubicon. Additionally, Jeep diehard fans received confirmation via email that indeed, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator will be the star of the show at NAIAS.

What can we expect from the 2024 Jeep Gladiator? It’s likely to inherit several features introduced in the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, which is already available in dealerships. These enhancements include a new grille design, a stealth radio antenna, an impressive 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen radio, optional 12-way power-adjustable front seats, a redesigned instrument panel, the introduction of an 8,000-pound Warn winch option, and a highly anticipated upgrade: the Dana 44 HD full float solid rear axle.

One question on many enthusiasts’ minds is whether the Wrangler 4xe’s hybrid powertrain will find its way into the Gladiator. Jeep has made it clear that they aim to electrify their entire North American lineup by the end of 2025, and this has sparked speculation about a potential surprise announcement at the Detroit show. However, Jeep remains tight-lipped about this possibility, keeping us all in suspense until the big day.
