2025 Jeep Gladiator price and specs: Only one variant left, but it's cheaper than before
The Jeep Gladiator has received a raft of updates for model year 2025 (MY25), but the dual-cab 4×4 ute has actually received a price cut. There are two caveats here: the price-leading Night Eagle variant is now dead, leaving only the flagship Rubicon; and it's the before on-roads price that has been reduced. The Rubicon has dropped from $87,250 to $82,990 before on-roads, though examples of the MY23 Rubicon are still being offered for $76,000 drive-away… and earlier this year it was even cheaper at just $70,000 drive-away. The refreshed Gladiator Rubicon is arriving in showrooms this month. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new Jeep Gladiator. Click here to get a great deal. Externally, the MY25 Gladiator is distinguished by a new grille with improved cooling performance, and a new 17-inch alloy wheel design. The antenna has also been relocated to the windscreen, which now features Gorilla glass, and the Gladiator has picked up an additional underbody skid plate. Jeep has also made the old Lifestyle Adventure Group standard, bringing lockable under-seat storage, an auxiliary switch bank, 240-amp alternator and Bluetooth speaker, plus a spray-in liner and trail rail system for the tub. Also newly standard are body-coloured fender flares, though a body-colour hard top remains optional. Inside, the changes are even more apparent. The 8.4-inch touchscreen has been replaced with a new 12.3-inch unit, with full-array local dimming technology for improved visibility when the Gladiator's roof is off, and it has been upgraded from the Uconnect 4 infotainment system to Uconnect 5. Other interior upgrades include curtain airbags and Nappa leather upholstery for both rows of seats, and 12-way power-adjustment for the front seats. Jeep also notes the Gladiator has a new urethane dash panel and a hard seat-back panel, though the new instrument panel features soft-touch surfaces and contrast accent stitching. It also says it has made improvements to noise, vibration and harshness. The updated Gladiator has been a long time coming, having first been revealed in the US in September 2023. The ute – Jeep's first since the Comanche, never sold here, exited production in 1992 – was launched here in 2020. It's closely related to the Wrangler, though it has never been offered with the V8 and plug-in hybrid powertrains available in the SUV in the US. There was a turbo-diesel V6 offered overseas, though unfortunately it was never offered in Australia and has been discontinued globally. There's just one engine available: a petrol V6 with idle stop/start. The body-on-frame Gladiator is offered in just one dual-cab 4×4 ute body style. The Jeep Gladiator is backed by a five-year, 100,000km warranty. Jeep offers five years of capped-price servicing. While it hasn't announced MY25 service pricing, the outgoing Gladiator costs $399 per visit for each of these five visits. The Jeep Gladiator has a three-star safety rating from ANCAP, based on testing conducted in 2019 of the related Wrangler. Standard safety equipment includes: There's now just one grade of Gladiator available. The Rubicon comes standard with the following standard equipment: A body-colour hard top is a $1950 option. The Gladiator is offered exclusively with a black interior.

China-ASEAN cyber defence alliance targets Night Eagle APT
THE cybersecurity landscape in Southeast Asia is rapidly evolving as China-ASEAN cooperation intensifies to combat sophisticated Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups. At the prestigious CYDES 2025 Cybersecurity Conference held at Putrajaya International Convention Centre, industry leaders unveiled groundbreaking strategies to counter the newly identified Night Eagle APT group. Night Eagle APT: A New Cyber Menace Gu Liang, Vice Director of PanGu Laboratory at Qi An Xin Technology Group, delivered a compelling keynote address detailing the company's successful efforts in identifying and countering Night Eagle (designated APT-Q-95). This sophisticated threat actor represents a well-organised group with suspected backing from nation-states and powerful financial entities. The Night Eagle group has demonstrated alarming capabilities, particularly in exploiting high-risk vulnerabilities within Microsoft Exchange systems. Their primary targets include government agencies, defence contractors, and high-technology enterprises across the region. Critical Infrastructure Under Siege 'Email servers serve as the backbone of communication for governments and corporations worldwide,' warned Gu Liang. 'When these systems are compromised, attackers gain access to sensitive business intelligence, financial data, project details, and client information—creating potentially catastrophic consequences.' The threat intelligence gathered by Qi An Xin reveals that Night Eagle's attacks originate from compromised Exchange mail servers, utilising critical remote code execution vulnerabilities. The company has successfully captured the exploit process in real-time, providing crucial insights into the attack methodology. AI-Powered Defence Systems The conference highlighted the transformative impact of artificial intelligence in Cyber Security Operation Centres (CSOC). According to Gu Liang, AI technology enables organisations to achieve accurate threat detection, accelerated investigation processes, and comprehensive incident response whilst reducing dependency on human cybersecurity experts. 'Major government agencies and large enterprises may encounter hundreds of thousands of cyberattacks daily,' he explained. 'AI empowers us to deliver round-the-clock precision alerts, real-time threat analysis, and automated responses to these persistent threats.' Digital Risk Protection Services Celine Xu, Global Business Director of TianJi Partners, introduced comprehensive Digital Risk Protection (DRP) services designed to safeguard brand reputation and financial assets. The company specialises in monitoring web-based threats including phishing websites, counterfeit applications, and fraudulent social media accounts. 'Our proactive monitoring capabilities span the entire web ecosystem, alerting clients to potential threats before they materialise,' Xu explained. TianJi Partners currently protects prestigious international brands including HSBC, Morgan Stanley, and LVMH Group. ASEAN Business Vulnerability The conference addressed emerging concerns regarding ASEAN companies facing cyber warfare tactics linked to business competition. Industry experts warn that rapidly developing ASEAN enterprises may become targets of cyber espionage campaigns designed to steal corporate secrets for competitive advantage. 'Cyber threats are evolving in sophistication and scope,' Xu concluded. 'We strongly encourage businesses throughout Malaysia and ASEAN to prioritise cybersecurity infrastructure investments.' The CYDES 2025 conference underscored the commitment of both governmental and private sector organisations across Malaysia and ASEAN to cybersecurity excellence. Qi An Xin expressed enthusiasm for partnering with local organisations to establish an era of Automated Cybersecurity Operations throughout the region.
