Five Notable Vehicles Leaving the Market by 2026

Every year, a few vehicles are discontinued. This usually goes unnoticed by car shoppers, but these cancellations could mean good deals for you. Dealers often try to clear out inventory of discontinued vehicles, offering negotiation opportunities on price. Additionally, cars that lose value initially might become valuable classics in the future. Edmunds’ experts have identified five significant models that will not be available after 2026. Here are their details, including current prices with destination fees.

Ford Escape

After 25 years and four generations, the Ford Escape is leaving showrooms. Though it does not stack up against top competitors like the Hyundai Tucson and Toyota RAV4, it comes with perks worth considering. If bought at a discount, the Escape offers comfortable seating, a smooth ride, and easy controls. You can choose from two powertrains: a hybrid with an EPA-estimated 39 mpg combined or a plug-in hybrid that can travel up to 37 miles on electric power before needing gas. The 2026 Escape starts at $31,845.

Volkswagen ID.4

The Volkswagen ID.4 debuted as one of the first electric SUVs to rival the Tesla Model Y. While it was initially a great choice due to its driving range and features, newer models like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 have surpassed it. Despite this, getting a 2026 ID.4 remains wise. Edmunds’ data suggests you can save about $10,000 off its sticker price. The Pro trim with rear-wheel drive offers heated seats, wireless charging, a 12.9-inch touchscreen, and driver assistance features. The starting price for the 2026 ID.4 is $46,570.

Jaguar F-Pace

The 2026 Jaguar F-Pace is the final chance to own a gas-powered Jaguar before the company turns all-electric. Continuing for ten years without a redesign, it offers an attractive look, strong engines, and sharp handling. Although it cannot compete with newer luxury SUVs, a good deal makes it tempting. The SVR 575 Edition, with a 567-horsepower V8 engine, might be a future classic. The 2026 F-Pace starts at $58,375.

Toyota GR Supra

The GR Supra is Toyota’s leading sports car and the successor to the 1990s Supra. Marking its end after seven years in 2026, the GR Supra comes with a 382-horsepower engine, engaging driving dynamics, and an optional manual transmission. Its unique shape stands out. Its discontinuation is linked to the end of BMW’s Z4 roadster production, with which it shared manufacturing. While a new Supra might be possible, this model has future classic potential. The GR Supra starts at $59,595.

Tesla Model S

The Tesla Model S is a notable electric vehicle that will see its final production in 2026. Though its design might feel outdated among luxury EVs, it remains a spacious sedan for daily use and long trips. It features all-wheel drive, a range of 410 miles, and a rapid 0-60 mph acceleration in 3.1 seconds, as cited by Tesla. The Full Self-Driving feature further distinguishes it, although used models are now necessary to purchase. Pricing for a used 2026 Model S starts around $110,000.

According to Edmunds, if any of these vehicles interest you, act quickly, as available inventory may be low.
