Pricing & trims
Price & Lineup
How much does the 2026 Jeep Gladiator cost?
The 2026 Gladiator ranges from about $39,820 for the Sport to $61,210 for the Mojave X, before the $1,995 destination charge, tax, and title. Because a single V6 powers every trim, price differences reflect off-road hardware, interior, and technology. The dealer sets the final price, so check live inventory for current pricing and offers in South Jersey.
How many trims does the 2026 Gladiator come in, and which is best for me?
The Gladiator is offered in roughly a dozen trims across three platforms: Sport-based value and comfort trims, the rock-crawling Rubicon, and the desert-running Mojave, plus loaded X versions. Sport S is the most popular all-around pick, Willys is the budget off-road choice, Sahara is the comfort daily driver, and Rubicon or Mojave are the trail specialists.
