the jeep gladiator farout concept’s neatly contained, customized roof-top tent opens and retracts in a matter of seconds, so you can just park up and rest. 16-foot-long by 7.5-foot-tall, it spaciously and comfortably sleeps up to four. inside the truck, the interior distinguishes a distinct outdoors style. warm and wood-lined surfaces are complemented with dark smoke blue leather, orange stitching and plaid flannel. it comes equipped with a refrigerator and stove as well as hanging storage racks, and built-in seats and table space.

standing on huge 37-inch mud-terrain tires with 17-inch matte charcoal rims, the rugged exterior is coated in a new mystery blue ‘earl’ body color with chartreuse green accents on the hood, rear tailgate tow hooks, springs, badging, and performance shocks. its all-conquering character is emphasized with performance equipment, including two-inch lift kit, modified gladiator rubicon steel bumper with a 12,000-lb warn winch, custom front and rear rock rails, and an integrated roof-rack system.

as well as all these features, the truck’s long-range-capable 3.0-liter ecodiesel V6 engine enables you to go to even the most remote locations and get off-grid. it produces 260 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. orders are available from the third quarter of 2020.
