2026 Jeep Gladiator: Willys ’41 Pays Tribute to the Brand's Military Heritage

Stellantis has announced updates for the 2026 Gladiator, among which is the addition of a Willys '41 edition.

The new version pays homage to the brand's military heritage, following the example of the Willys '41 edition of the Wrangler launched in 2025. It is specifically inspired by the Jeep Kaiser M715.

This new version features an olive green colour, inscriptions on the sides of the hood and 17-inch steel wheels. It’s also equipped with steel bumpers and tires designed for mud. Inside, the beige seats match up well with the green elements.

On the Sport S version, all-terrain tires are now offered as an option. New colours are added to the existing palette: Reign Purple and Goldilock Ocre.
