When the all-new 2020 Jeep Gladiator first debuted, the world was ready to drive Jeep's latest vehicle. A mid-size SUV that has best-in-class towing and world-class drivability, customers were clamoring to own one. Among those customers were tuning houses across the country, like Hennessey Performance Engineering, hoping to work on the newest Jeep vehicle. After all, this new Jeep pickup was the first one built by the Jeep brand since 1992's Jeep Comanche truck. The 2020 Jeep Gladiator was made to provide adventure and serve as the ultimate work truck. Jeep added class-leading tow capacity of up to 7,650 pounds and a 4x4 payload of up to 1,600 pounds, but that wasn't enough for the Hennessey group, who raised the bar by adding and tuning the all-new 2020 Jeep Gladiator to become more ferocious. How so? By making the newly-introduced Jeep pickup gain the strength of a thousand horses.

The First-Ever 1,000 Horsepower Gladiator Is Born

What would  Hennessey Performance Engineering name their latest prized vehicle? Keeping with the theme that Jeep brought up and bringing memories of the famed character from the 2000 Oscar Best Picture-winning film, Gladiator, they chose Maximus. The Jeep Gladiator Maximus 1000 has been upgraded in multiple ways including an impressive 6.5-inch lift kit, 37-inch tires, installed King shocks, and added custom diamond-stitched leather interior. The front and rear axles and driveshafts were enhanced, including other details that upgraded the Jeep pickup including a new radiator, fuel system, and a stainless-steel exhaust. This is one heavy-duty upgrade that will put a smile on any owner’s face, but this is a rare pickup. 

How Rare Is the Maximus 1000 Pickup?

Few owners will be able to get their hands on this exclusive vehicle that includes upgrades in the interior as well. No change was as significant as the Hellcat engine added inside. Hennessey decided to add the large 6.2-Liter HEMI V8 engine that delivers 1,000 horsepower and an uncommonly strong 933-lb-ft of torque boosts the strength for this Jeep pickup. Few drivers can even equate to having this much strength and capabilities in a mid-size pickup. The truth is, few vehicles will even carry what the Maximus 1000 provides. The massive engine, paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission, is not only a supercharged engine, its fully enhanced by the hands at Hennessey Performance Group all the way through.

Remarkable Might Be An Understatement

This remarkable pickup made its debut last month at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, Nevada, in November 2019. Considered quite a rare vehicle, due to the fact, just 24 of them have been produced for a select group of customers. This enhanced Jeep pickup is more than able to provide unmatched adventure both for on and off-road travels. Luckily, those who are searching for the all-new 2020 Jeep Gladiator are still in luck. The famous Jeep pickup will remain in production and isn't going anywhere soon. Thinking about adding a new Jeep pickup to any wish list this holiday season?
