Stellantis cancels plans for an electrified Jeep Gladiator


The move comes a week after the automaker axed plans to produce an all-electric Ram pickup truck.

As customers’ propulsion preferences for battery-electric trucks continue to evolve, Stellantis is reassessing its product strategy and will no longer include an electrified Gladiator variant in the Jeep lineup. Last week, Stellantis said it would no longer develop a battery-electric full-size pickup under its Ram brand, a vehicle that was supposed to be part of the automaker’s U.S. product offensive to sell more than 25 all-new BEVs by the end of the decade.
