Should I buy a used Ford Escape now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −16.18% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −5.01%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 35.4% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 34.5%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $22,917. The Ford Escape offers a comfortable ride and a practical, family-friendly cabin that make it easy to live with every day.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: The latest model 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 latest model includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 13.2-inch Sync 4 infotainment system, 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 manufacturer’s suggested retail price rises to 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.

Ford Escape test drive
overall
One of the original compact crossovers, the Ford Escape, might be nearing the end of its life.
Reportedly, Ford will discontinue the Escape at the end of the current fourth-generation run. Once among the most popular vehicles in its class, Ford recently zigged with the Escape’s design and positioning when the market zagged. Boxy, rugged-looking crossovers are what people want, not soft and sophisticated pseudo-cars like the current Escape. Fortunately, Ford has the Bronco Sport in its lineup, which is getting all of the automaker’s attention. Meanwhile, the 2024 Ford Escape receives no major changes following a substantial makeover in 2023, though it appears the Base trim is canceled.
