Lacking in off-road accessories, storage, and unique features is one thing the Top Dog Gladiator concept, which Jeep unveiled at the virtual 2020 SEMA Show, is not.
No less than 20 Jeep performance parts are packed in the model, most of which aimed at mountain biking enthusiasts. Among these features are a custom box for the truck bed, a flat-bed system with pullout drawers on the passenger side, and several exterior lighting and power supplies.
On the driver’s side of the bed, there’s a fridge and an electric hot dog grill. The top of the cab also has two racks that can hold bicycles and other equipment, plus storage compartments with traction mats that can be useful for vehicle recovery efforts.
In addition, the off-roader is also equipped with a JPP 2-inch lift kit with Fox shocks, 17-inch bead-lock-capable wheels wrapped in 37-inch BFGoodrich KM3 mud-terrain tires, exclusively designed steel fender flares, and a front fascia that can handle up to 8,000 pounds.
The Top Dog is also equipped with other standard Gladiator accessories, including a snorkel, rock rails, LED lights, plus a bonus second winch at the vehicle’s rear. In terms of paint color, the concept gives a nod to the Top Dog brand with a K9 blue color, which is also evident in the interior accents.
As with other concept cars, the exact styling may not make it into final production; however, it’s possible for the automaker to launch the accessories bundle (hot dog grill included) to interested buyers in the future.
