Jeep Gladiator Willys V6 4x4 | 2 Toits | Sièges volant chauffants *ARRIVAGE JUIN*2026 Jeep Gladiator Willys 4X4
The 2026 Jeep Gladiator Willys 4X4 is built for drivers who want more than an ordinary midsize pickup. It blends legendary Jeep DNA, real off-road capability, and the practical usefulness of a pickup bed in one bold package. With its 3.6L Pentastar V6, 8-speed automatic transmission, and industry-unique open-air design, it delivers an experience that feels very different from a conventional truck. Finished here in Sky Grey with a black interior, a retractable tonneau cover, the Convenience Group and the Dual Top Group, this Gladiator is ready for weekend adventure, everyday driving and everything in between. The Willys treatment also adds serious hardware and a tougher visual presence that make this truck stand out for all the right reasons.
Performance and driving experience
Under the hood, this Gladiator Willys is powered by the proven 3.6L Pentastar V6 with stop/start technology, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain delivers 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, giving the Gladiator strong everyday drivability, confident passing power and the kind of flexibility buyers appreciate for towing, hauling gear and heading off the beaten path. For this specific configuration, towing capacity is listed at 6,000 lb, which makes it a compelling option for customers planning to tow a utility trailer, small boat, powersports equipment or weekend toys without stepping into a full-size truck.
The Willys package brings much more than appearance. It adds an electronic-locking rear axle, Off-Road Plus mode, Willys suspension with heavy-duty red shock absorbers, protection sill rails, heavy-duty engine cooling and a Class IV hitch receiver with Trailer Hitch Zoom. In other words, this Gladiator has the real Jeep hardware to back up its aggressive attitude.
Willys design and open-air freedom
The 2026 Jeep Gladiator Willys makes an immediate impression with its unmistakable silhouette, practical pickup bed and more aggressive Willys-specific styling. This Sky Grey unit stands out even more with its Steel Power Dome hood, black grille, black bumpers, black 17-inch wheels, all-terrain tires and Willys and 4x4 decals that reinforce its trail-ready identity. LED reflector headlamps, LED fog lamps and LED-accent daytime running lights add a more modern signature while preserving the rugged Jeep character buyers expect.
The Gladiator also remains the only pickup in the industry with true open-air freedom, thanks to its fold-down windshield, removable doors and removable roof. With the Dual Top Group, this unit becomes even more versatile by including both a Black Premium Sunrider soft top and a black 3-piece Freedom Top hardtop. That flexibility gives owners two very different ways to enjoy the same vehicle depending on the weather, the season and the adventure.
Comfort and convenience
Inside, this Gladiator Willys keeps its rugged personality while adding a welcome level of comfort through the Convenience Group. That package brings front heated seats, a heated steering wheel, automatic climate control, remote start, remote proximity keyless entry, a universal garage door opener and a Corning Gorilla Glass windshield. For Canadian buyers, those features make a real difference in daily life, especially through colder months.
The cloth low-back bucket seats, black interior theme and straightforward Jeep layout create a cabin that feels durable, functional and easy to live with. The retractable tonneau cover is another meaningful plus, helping protect cargo, improve day-to-day usability and add practical value to the bed.
Technology and connectivity
The 2026 Gladiator benefits from the model's recent upgrades, including Uconnect 5 and a 12.3-inch touchscreen, one of the biggest improvements to the vehicle's interior experience. Buyers also get Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, advanced voice control designed to work more effectively in an open-air vehicle, and a 7-inch in-cluster colour display through the Convenience Group. The result is a cabin that feels more connected, more modern and much better suited to everyday life than many shoppers might expect from a trail-oriented pickup.
Safety and confidence
The 2026 Jeep Gladiator also puts more emphasis on driver assistance and occupant confidence. The lineup includes features such as adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, side-curtain airbags and a high-strength steel frame. On the 2026 Gladiator Willys models reviewed, buyers also benefit from highly appreciated features such as Forward Collision Warning Plus with Active Braking and the ParkView rear back-up camera. That gives this truck broader appeal for buyers who want one vehicle for work, recreation and everyday family use.
