The 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport and Honda Ridgeline Sport both offer a four-door design that maximises passenger-carrying space. However, while these platforms provide plenty of features and capabilities, they approach the powertrain in different ways. Here is how the Jeep Gladiator and Honda Ridgeline's base trims compare when you look under the hood.Â

Engine: 3.6L V6
Transmission: 6-speed manual
Drivetrain: 4WD

Honda Ridgeline Sport

The Jeep Gladiator Sport has a definitive power advantage, which translates into a payload capacity of 726 kg and a towing limit of between 2,041 kg (manual transmission) and 3,469 kg (automatic).
The Jeep's biggest advantage comes from its drivetrain components. For example, it has a Tru-Lok electronic locking differential, which can help it power out of slippery spots without missing a beat. You also get the Command-Trac part-time 4x4 system featuring a two-speed transfer case with a low gear mode for crawling or towing a maximum weight load.Â
