A new Sunshine Orange mica exterior paint colour is offered exclusively on the X-Terrain following the discontinuation of Volcanic Amber metallic.
The 2024 D-Max range will be offered in nine colours. All except Mineral White come at a $500 premium.
The Jeep Gladiator might be a warrior off the beaten track, but it falls short in a number of areas against segment favourites.

The D-Max is a staple in the Australian ute market, and this year's updates have done well to bring it up to speed against the competition.
