The 2025 Jeep Gladiator is a uniquely designed vehicle that combines the classic Jeep body shape and style with the functionality and power of a truck. Add to this mix powerful off-roading capabilities, and you have a highly versatile mid-size pickup truck that can haul just as much weight as others in its segment. For all its excellence however, the Gladiator faces stiff competition from well-established names like the Toyota Tacoma, which has been around since 1995–a full 23 years ahead of the Gladiator.
In this Jeep Gladiator vs. Toyota Tacoma comparison guide from Don Franklin Monticello Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we compare these two mid-size pickups to see which is more capable. Check out the content below, and contact us if you have any questions. You can also visit our finance page to see if you prequalify for our current offers.
The 2025 Jeep Gladiator can tow up to 7,700 pounds, exceeding the maximum towing capacity of the 2025 Toyota Tacoma by 1,200 pounds. To achieve this, Number One drivers should choose the Jeep Gladiator Sport trim and equip it with the Max Trailer Tow Group package, which adds:
With an additional 1,200 pounds of towing capacity, you can tow anything from a small camper to a pair of jet skis! Before you tow anything, however, always review your owner’s manual for vehicle-specific instructions and correctly equip your vehicle to tow. Importantly, you must never exceed your vehicle’s GVWR. You can find GVWR on a sticker on the driver’s side door or in your owner’s manual.
The 2025 Jeep Gladiator provides the Stop driver with a Uconnect® 5-powered 12.3-inch display and standard eight-speaker setup. By contrast, the Toyota Audio Multimedia system you’ll find in the Tacoma is paired with a smaller 8.0-inch screen and only four speakers to start.
Both systems can be upgraded by purchasing optional packages, though there are differences in availability. The high-end Alpine audio system with nine speakers and an all-weather subwoofer is available across the Jeep Gladiator lineup; the 10-speaker JBL® sound system is only available on some Tacoma trims.
