About Ford Escape
The 2025 Ford Escape loses quite a few previously-standard features, coupled with a few additions – but every trim is cheaper than before.
Those deletions for the 2025 model year include the dropping the Cold Weather Package, which was bundled with all-wheel drive models. It is still available as an option. And the Active trim level drops the standard eight-way power driver’s seat, replacing it with a six-way manual seat. The ST-Line is ditches its aluminum foot pedals that were previously standard on all three ST-Line trims, while the ST-Line Elite and Platinum are ditching the previously-standard ambient lighting. For 2025, the ST-Line and ST-Line Select are ditching their monochromatic painted bodyside cladding, rocker panels, and bumpers in favor of molded-in-color components. ActiveX seating has replaced leather in the ST-Line Elite with the Premium Technology Package, as well as the PHEV model when equipped with the Premium Package, too.
The 2025 Escape has ditched Active Park Assist 2.0 on all trims, becoming the latest Blue Oval model to do so. It also drops its premium wrapped steering wheel in favor of a urethane unit for the new model year.
The 2025 model has also ditched its spare tire in non-hybrid models, which no longer come with that part as standard equipment, and instead, The Blue Oval has gone back to equipping them with the Tire Inflator and Sealant Kit, though a spare is still available as an option for pure ICE models. Finally, rain-sensing wipers are dropped on the ST-Line Elite and Platinum trims, too. As far as exterior colors go, Space Silver Metallic has been added as a no-cost option for all trims, though two colors are gone, namely, Iconic Silver Metallic and Race Red.
The 2025 Ford Escape is more affordable across the board, with prices reduced compared to the 2024 model year anywhere from $1,000 to $2,100 depending on trim level and powertrain. Notably, the most expensive 2025 Escape EcoBoost and Hybrid both cost $44K. However, overall the Ford Escape Hybrid is among the least expensive alternate fuel cars available on the market.
Although a report claimed the Ford Escape remains on track for discontinuation by 2026, Ford Authority has just learned that the Escape will live on for the 2026 model year after all.

Comment
The compact crossover market has numerous models that are in the Top 15 selling vehicles, and Ford is just abandoning it. Unless they make the Bronco Sport substantially better, they are handing other automakers a gift. I can’t understand what they are thinking and what a huge mistake they are making ruining the Escape brand.
