Most model years in the table are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want more room to negotiate. The steepest drops are concentrated in the newer and mid-cycle years, while the smallest declines are clustered near the top of the list. That means recent examples have softened, but some of the newest model years have held closer to their prior pricing than older ones.

Should I buy a used Ford Escape now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −16.08% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −4.81%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 36.4% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 35.9%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $22,806. The Ford Escape offers a comfortable ride and a practical cabin that works well for daily driving.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: The 2024 Escape offers a 192-horsepower hybrid powertrain expected to get 39 mpg in combined driving, or a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 250 horsepower, 280 pound-feet of torque, and 26 mpg in combined driving.
- Tech: The 2024 Escape features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM 360L satellite radio, FordPass Connect services, Amazon Alexa, and a complimentary three-year subscription to connected navigation.
- Safety: The latest model adds a standard Ford Co-Pilot360 collection of driving assistance systems with forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and automatic high-beam headlights.
- Starting price: The 2024 Escape starts at nearly $35,000 for a front-drive hybrid model.
If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.

Great value with added features. Comparable to a jeep compass but with a more powerful engine. Nothing seems to be missing for me! It has 2 usb plug ins and 2 cigarette lighters for charging all the things.

Why it stands out
The 2023 Ford Escape stands out as a compact crossover with an upscale, tech-forward feel. It offers an impressive array of safety and infotainment technology, and its available powerful engine upgrade gives it extra passing speed for shoppers who want more punch. The Escape also has a handsome design that helps it feel more polished than a basic commuter SUV.
At the same time, the 2023 Ford Escape is not without drawbacks. It may feel a bit cramped for some shoppers, and its interior materials can feel cheap. Wind noise is another downside, and it is priced on the higher end of the segment, which makes its value proposition less compelling than its feature list might suggest.
