Most people don’t know the IRS allows business owners to write off full-size vehicles as a business expense. Here are 12 vehicles that qualify:
Cadillac Escalade
Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon
Chevy Suburban
BMW X7
Toyota Sequoia
Tesla Cybertruck
Range Rover Sport
Porsche Cayenne
Ford F-150
Tesla Model X
Lexus LX 570
Nissan Armada
The reason these qualify is because they exceed 6,000 lbs in gross vehicle weight, which makes them eligible for Section 179 deductions or bonus depreciation under IRS tax code.
This means a business owner could potentially write off the entire cost of the vehicle in the first year. Always work with a tax professional to make sure you’re doing it correctly — but this is 100% legal and thousands of business owners use it every year.
Save this if you own a business.
