Vehicle Interest Deduction


New Tax Breaks on New CJDR Vehicles

A new federal tax deduction* lets qualifying customers deduct up to $10,000 annually on interest paid for new vehicles. Many CJDR vehicles are proudly assembled right here in the U.S.**, making them eligible for this tax break. That means you can drive a quality CJDR and keep more of your hard-earned money. It's a win for your wallet, and a win for America.

What Is Section 179?

It's a new way to potentially save on your taxes when you finance a new vehicle. You may be able to deduct up to $10,000 in annual interest paid for new vehicles assembled right here in the U.S. This applies whether you itemize deductions or take the standard deduction.

Are their income limits?

Yes, the deduction starts to phase out for individuals earning over $100,000 (or $200,000 for married couples filing jointly).

What kind of auto debt qualifies?

This deduction is for financing personal vehicles only. It doesn't apply to business or fleet purchases, and leases are not included.

Is there a purchase by date?

It applies to interest paid on new vehicles financed after December 31, 2024, for tax years 2025 through 2028. Contracts refinanced before 2025 don't qualify.

Which CJDR vehicles are eligible?

Your dealer can confirm specific models, but many CJDR vehicles assembled in the U.S. qualify.
