The new Jeep Gladiator Dark Spy appearance package amplifies the cool parts of the pickup for less money than you could do it yourself.

 

## Jeep Gladiator Dark Spy package

 

Starting with the always cool-looking [Jeep Gladiator](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2024/09/2025-jeep-gladiator-changes-no-manual-transmission-new-price-4xe/>), the Dark Spy package adds a variety of popular features for lower level Sport S trim. This puts it all into one convenient package for customers.

 

Specifically the package adds:

 
- A performance hood to evoke the [Desert-rated Mojave](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2020/05/jeep-wrangler-mojave-rumored-to-be-coming-in-2021/>) styling
- Body-color fender flares
- Gloss black bumper inserts
- Dark-colored badges and decals

The big news is the package allows customers to choose an optional body-color hardtop roof for the Sport S trim. This is the first-time customers have been able to do so.

 

This additional equipment comes bundled at $1,495 on top of the purchase price for the Jeep Gladiator Sport S truck. This includes other additional standard equipment like the 12.3-inch infotainment screen with Uconnect 5, a suite of active safety equipment like adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and a premium, wrapped steering wheel.

There are further ways to option up the Dark Spy models as well.

 

These models come with the [Dana 44 front and rear axles](<https://www.dana.com/>), the front axle disconnect, transmission and transfer case skid plates, plus 10 inches of ground clearance. They also have the most [rear-seat leg room amongst midsize trucks](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2023/10/which-one-fits-your-family-2023-midsize-truck-legroom-length-comparison/>). Maximum towing is 7,700 pounds with maximum payload at 1,725 pounds.

 

Order banks for the Dark Spy package are open now.

 

## Our take

 

As models like the Jeep Gladiator reach the end of their product cycle, bundles and special editions are common. These provide good values to customers looking for more bang for their buck.
