2024 Jeep Gladiator Gets Three New Packages from American Expedition Vehicles
This month, we got to hear all about the new 2024 Jeep® Gladiator and its off-road capability. Featuring four advanced 4×4 systems, the Jeep Gladiator is the one pickup truck that truly wears the colors of the Jeep Wrangler SUV. With a best-in-class 4×4 payload, legendary Jeep 4×4 capability, open-air freedom, versatility, personalization, and customization, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator comes in four flavors – the Sport, Willys, Mojave, and Rubicon – with the Rubicon being even more capable, featuring a best-in-class 84:1 crawl ratio. Also coming to 2024 is the Gladiator Mojave, made for desert plains and sandy dunes. The newest addition to the capability of the 2024 Jeep Gladiator is an exclusive upfit package from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV).
Striking up a deal, the first AEV packages for Jeep were announced in August 2023 for the Wrangler. A historic moment for the automaker, these AEV upfit packages were designed specifically for the Jeep SUV is something to be celebrated. A total of three packages were released, the Upcountry, Upcountry+, and Level II, each gaining more features and equipment for going off road. Such examples include a 2.0-inch suspension kit, 35-inch BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires, JPP/Mopar flare extensions, a front skid plate, and a front integrated off-road camera. Level II is saved for the Rubicon trim, offering 14.2 inches of ground clearance, 37.1 inches water fording, 50-degree approach angle, 33-degree breakover angle, and a 43-degree departure angle.
