Jones CDJR Wickenburg, AZ, 2025 Section 179 Business Tax Deduction Guide

Did you know you can score significant tax savings for your business through the Section 179 deduction? This deduction allows you to expense the cost of a qualifying commercial vehicle with favorable terms, optimizing your revenue and helping you grow your business over time.

This tax law has been around for a while, but for the Section 179 deduction, 2025 was a significant turning point. New legislation increased the limit to $2.5 million and restored the 100% deduction amount (which had been scheduled to decrease by 20% annually).¹ The bill wrote these regulations into the tax code, securing them for the future, so now is an opportune time to invest in a commercial vehicle.

This guide goes into detail on Section 179 – what it is, how to know if you qualify, and which models are eligible at Jones Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Wickenburg. When in doubt, please contact our team to discuss how this all works.

What Is Section 179?

Simply put, Section 179 is an IRS code that businesses can lean on to deduct the cost of equipment (namely, new or used commercial vehicles) bought and put into service during the tax year. That deduction applies to your company's taxable income. Not every business qualifies, and neither does every commercial vehicle, so let's dig deeper.

How Do You Know if You Qualify for the Section 179 Deduction?

To qualify for the Section 179 deduction, your vehicle must:

• Be used exclusively for business purposes more than 50% of the time.¹
• Be a new or used vehicle.
• Have a GVWR between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds.¹

Please also keep in mind that the deduction cannot amount to more than your business's income. If unused, the benefit may be carried over to the next tax year.¹

What Are the Section 179 Limits for 2025?

Businesses can deduct up to $2.5 million before hitting the threshold of $4 million. Should your costs exceed that upper ceiling, it's not a disqualifier; it just means that your deduction limit starts to decline by one dollar for each dollar over.¹ Please let our dealership team know if you have any questions about Section 179 limits.

How Do You Take Advantage of the Deduction?

If your business qualifies for the deduction, you'll have to fill out Form 4562 while filing your company's taxes. Make sure to have the following information handy:

• Relevant expenses, such as maintenance and repair costs
• The date of purchase and the first date of use
• Level of use throughout the tax year
• Your reason for claiming the deduction
