The 2026 model year represents a final inventory phase out of the Escape, with no new production planned, and it was not available in certain states that follow CARB standards because Ford did not certify it for California emissions. Production of the Escape for New Zealand, assembled in Valencia alongside the European Kuga, ended in early 2026, closing the run of the four generation nameplate. It had been Ford's compact crossover since the 2001 model year, and Ford planned to retool Louisville for electric vehicles.
