Albany CDJR gets customers ready for 2020 Gladiator, Compass buyers to take on the competition

Albany, ORE., Dec. 31, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Jeep has become one of the most respected automakers in the world by delivering a range of vehicles that offer a lot of capability. For the 2020 model year, it got back into the midsize pickup truck segment with the Jeep Gladiator, which has heightened the sense of competition in an already very competitive corner of the industry. As important as the Gladiator is to the brand's long-term success, Jeep hasn't lost sight of what put it in this strong position by continuing to develop models like the 2020 Jeep Compass. Albany Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is ready to help customers find the perfect vehicle to meet their needs and they have found a lot of advantages for either vehicle compared to the best options rival manufacturers have to offer.

The 2020 Jeep Gladiator is more than just a Wrangler with a pickup truck cargo bed attached to it. Under the hood sits a very powerful and capable 3.6-liter, V-6 engine that makes 285 horsepower while being able to pull up to 4,000 pounds. One of the top competitors that Gladiator buyers are likely to consider still makes an outdated 2.7-liter, four-cylinder engine its standard power plant that makes fewer than 160 horsepower. It also has a lower towing capacity than the 2020 Gladiator by about quarter-ton.

Buyers who are looking for something a bit nimbler may want to examine what the 2020 Jeep Compass has to offer. It uses a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that will make 180 horsepower and can be equipped with either front- or all-wheel-drive. One of the compact Jeep crossover SUV's competitors also uses a four-cylinder power plant but it will only have front-wheel-drive available and make only 144 horsepower. The 2020 Compass is also able to offer more interior cargo volume than its previously referenced rival.

Both the 2020 Jeep Gladiator and 2020 Jeep Compass can be outfitted with the latest connectivity technology available on the market today. Owners of either model can choose trim grades that are outfitted with access to both the Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto(TM) suites of applications. Buyers who choose either Jeep vehicles' rival may have trouble matching this next-generation capability.
