First proper pictures are out today of the EJS 2019 concepts.
As you might expect, they're concentrating on the new Gladiator, to drum up some interest and get feedback. I'll get a closer look next week, hopefully chance to sit in all of them.

They actually look quite smart (not the orange so much) better than the new Defender I expect

because........if it does then the canopy in the below picture looks rather interesting....!
With sales as strong as they are in the UK for Pick-ups I assume they will....? Click image to enlarge |

I don't think the Gladiator will come to the UK, sadly. It is huge by our double cab standards, approximately 139" wheelbase and big rear overhang. Jeep/Dodge don't seem interested in importing commercial vehicles to UK. Then there's the question of which engine, both the V6 petrol and diesel versions of the Wrangler are not coming to Europe.
It was the most popular vehicle on the Jeep stall at Moab EJS last week. Will post pics when I get them off the camera. That hard top would be good. Lots of people were interested in the J6 blue 118" pickup. A more sensible size, but only 2d and not likely to make it to promotion. |

I guess they may consider it for the UK.
I did read somewhere they were keen to increase Wrangler volume over the volumes from the previous model. Gladiator could be a way to increase their presence without significant dealer investment in additional service kit. Most of the work will have been done already to produce a right hand drive version for the Wrangler, so presumably not a lot of tooling would be needed to produce a RHD Gladiator. The 2.2 4 pot diesel seems well up to the job in the Wrangler, so it should cope in the Gladiator. With 200HP and 450NM of torque, it should be OK. |

Fingers crossed.
From what I’ve seen online it’s very capable off road, front and rear lockers plus it even looks like a Defender with that canopy and roof rack combo! M |
