Selena Gomez, initially recognized as a Disney teen icon, has further risen to fame as a distinguished actress, singer, and entrepreneur. The 31-year-old's net worth has reportedly been estimated to be $800 million as of 2024, largely owing to the success of her beauty line, Rare Beauty. Gomez is also known to have an impressive car collection and real estate profile.

The Wizards Of Waverly Place alum's first car was a Ford Escape Hybrid. Gomez told Latina.com that she received it as a gift for her 16th Birthday, in 2013. She added that she "let the car sit there" since she enjoyed her mom driving her around. In another interview with star.com, Gomez described herself as "super laid back" and noted,

"I drive the same car that I've driven since I was 16. That's who I am."

A look at Selena Gomez's vehicle collection

Apart from being driven by her mom in a Ford Escape, Selena Gomez also loved to drive around with her co-star, David Henrie from Wizards Of Waverly Place. The Naturally singer had posted a video on her Instagram, years ago, where the two were seen singing while taking a drive together.

While the Ford Escape was Gomez's first car, the Only Murders In The Building star has built a large collection over time per The Richest, including

  1. Fiat 500: The Fiat 500 is the most affordable car that features in Selena Gomez's collection. The car has a compact and chic design and also offers a retro-styled interior.
  2. Mercedes GLA 250: According to 21 Motoring, Gomez is often seen driving her SUV on weekends for brunches and around beaches.

  4. Range Rover Evoque: Another compact and luxury SUV in Gomez's garage and is priced at around $55,000.
  5. Cadillac CT6: A luxury sedan priced at $58,000 that features a panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting, and a Bose Panaray sound system.
  6. BMW X5: A midsize SUV that is a perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Gomez was reportedly involved in a minor fender bender in 2014 when she was on a lunch outing with her best friend, Francia Raisa.

Selena Gomez's wide collection of cars is approximately valued at $1.08 Million, per ReRev. Even with such a lavish collection, Gomez's favorite is her first car, Ford Escape. When asked about her favorite car back in 2017, on the Ask Anything Chat on YouTube, she revealed that she "loved" her Ford Escape. The Rare Beauty founder added,

"That was my favorite car I ever had, it was so easy to drive, it was so fun."

Gomez took a brief pause before she revealed that she had "wrecked" it. She noted how "it was not fun" but hilariously added that she had her "seatbelt on."


Gomez has a luxurious collection of cars ranging from the affordable Fiat 500 to the most expensive Porsche GT3. Selena Gomez's love for cars has not been hidden in some of her music videos. In A Year Without Rain, one of her earliest music releases, Gomez can be seen in a classic Cadillac Eldorado. In another viral collaboration with Black Pink, Gomez was spotted on top of the Chevrolet Impala in the Ice Cream music video. More recently, she appeared on top of Porsche 256 in the award-winning music video, Calm Down with Rema.
