Shopping for a 2026 Jeep Gladiator in Fontana? Our showroom at 16263 S Highland Ave keeps a rotating selection of the open-air midsize pickup that pairs genuine Jeep 4×4 capability with a usable five-foot steel bed. Every 2026 Gladiator keeps the signature fold-down windshield and removable doors — and new for 2026, a tool-free quick-release door hinge system, the debut of the purple Reign exterior color, and the heritage-styled Willys ’41.

A Sport-based edition with Western-themed exterior styling, built for outdoor and ranch buyers and equipped for towing.
A one-model-year-only edition marking Jeep’s 85th year, with bronze accents and unique anniversary badging.
