The available diesel engine is a heavy-duty 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6. It delivers a maximum of 260 horsepower and 442 lb.-ft of torque. This number earned the Gladiator the best-in-class diesel torque for 4x4s. The diesel engine has a maximum towing capacity of 6,500 pounds when properly equipped.

Fuel Efficiency

The Gladiator has impressive towing capabilities and Jeep expects drivers will be using them. If you’ll be doing a lot of towing, you can make that easier with the available ParkView rear backup camera. This camera and software will display dynamic gridlines that will include a zoomed-in look at the hitch. This makes lining the vehicle up with the trailer a great deal easier.
