Qualified Vehicles
New cars, minivans, SUVs, pickup trucks, or motorcycles with a gross vehicle weight under 14,000 pounds qualify — provided they were assembled in the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I deduct interest on a used vehicle?
No. The vehicle must be new, with final assembly in the United States, and purchased after December 31, 2024.
What if I bought my vehicle in 2024?
Unfortunately, this deduction only applies to vehicles purchased after December 31, 2024. The 2025 tax year is the first year you can claim it.
Can I use this if I take the standard deduction?
Yes. This is one of the benefits of this new deduction — it's available whether you itemize or take the standard deduction.
What happens after 2028?
This deduction is temporary and expires after the 2028 tax year. However, you can continue deducting interest on loans taken out through 2028 in future years if the loan extends beyond 2028.
Does my GMC or Buick qualify?
Yes — as long as it's new, was assembled in the United States, and meets the other eligibility requirements. We carry quality GMC and Buick vehicles that qualify.
Should I talk to my tax professional?
Absolutely. While this information is accurate, tax situations vary. Consult your CPA or tax advisor to confirm your specific eligibility and maximize your benefits.
