抽選に当たれば約1,100万円を獲得するチャンスも!ジープ・新型「グラディエータ(Gladiator)」に初回限定のローンチエディションが登場。限定4,190台のみで約680万円から

2020-05-27

初回限定モデルを予約すると約1,100万円が貰えるかも?!

4月4日よりいよいよ発売スタートとなるジープの新型ピックアップトラックモデル「グラディエータ(Gladiator)」ですが、このモデルの初回限定モデルとなるローンチエディション(Launch Edition)が世界限定4,190台販売されることがわかりました。

これは、ピックアップトラック4×4モデルと発売日の4月4日をかけた特別なモデルとのことですが、折角なら販売台数も4,444台といった形で4に拘るのもアリかなぁと思ったり(販売台数の由来は以下に記載)。
そんなことよりも、今回の特別限定モデルは、ジープ「グラディエータ」のコンシェルジュオンラインwebサイトにて公開されているもので、何とこのモデルを先行予約した人全員を対象に、たった1名だけ約1,100万円を獲得するチャンスが貰えるとのこと。


エントリーグレードよりも2倍高いが…それでも買う価値はある?

ちなみに、今回のローンチエディションでは、特別な17インチのミッドグロスブラックに仕上げたアルミホイールと33インチのオールテレーンタイヤ、インテリアにはシルバー仕上げのインストルメントパネルのミッドボルスターと、レッドステッチを縫合したブラックレザーシートを標準装備します。

その他には、テールゲートにアルミ製のバッジが貼付される予定となっています。
ちなみに、この4,190台という台数の由来は、「グラディエーター」が製造される製造工場がオハイオ州であり、そこの市外局番が”419”から始まるということで、そらに合わせて台数を”4,190”にしたのだとか。

気になる価格帯についてですが、意外にも高額な約680万円にて設定され、エントリーグレードSportよりも約2倍の価格帯となります。
ただ、それでもアメリカでは大変人気の高い(特にピックアップ)モデルですし、既に1,000件を超える問い合わせが入ってきているとのことです。

このモデルのプレスリリース内容は以下の通りとなっています。

The all-new Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition will come with unique wheels and interior accents, as well as a “One of 4,190” forged aluminum tailgate badge. The number is a tribute to Toledo, Ohio – and its 419 area code – where both Gladiator and the Jeep Wrangler are proudly assembled.

To enter, they will submit their personal “Gladiator” video to be judged by the Jeep brand and wounded warrior and U.S. Army veteran Noah Galloway, who will choose the winner.

“The anticipation for the all-new Jeep Gladiator has been tremendous, and to mark the introduction of the first Jeep pickup truck in nearly 30 years, we are offering a distinctive model, a convenient online ordering experience, and the opportunity for a very special prize,” said Tim Kuniskis – Head of Jeep Brand – North America. “Jeep Gladiator enables the one-of-a-kind Jeep lifestyle. But to enjoy that lifestyle you need time. So we’re offering that, in the form of one-year’s salary, to the winner, so he or she can truly enjoy the outdoors, pursuing any adventure in their all-new Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition.”
