Small Business Tax Deductions
Small Business Tax Deductions for Chevy Vehicles
Your tax dollars at work.
Running a small business is hard work and you deserve a break. You can write off up to 100% of the purchase price of eligible Chevy vehicles. Under section 179 of the tax code your business may be eligible to deduct up to the full amount of the purchase price of any new vehicles. These vehicles only need to be new to your business as the tax benefit applies to both new and used vehicles as long as they meet the requirements. There is no aggregate limit and the tax break applies to every qualified vehicle purchase your business made during the tax year.

Section 179 of the IRS tax code details both what and how much businesses can deduct from their taxes from qualifying purchases. This deduction applies to the purchase of business-use vehicles. The deduction amount varies depending on the size of the vehicle. Qualifying passenger vehicles are eligible for a fixed deduction (up to $20,200 per vehicle for 2023), while larger vehicles can qualify for a deduction of up to 100% of the purchase price.

What Business Vehicles Qualify for the full Section 179 Deduction?
Note that because many vehicles can serve business and personal function both, the rules for business vehicle deductions are always evolving, and can be complicated. It’s easier to list the typical vehicles that will generally qualify for a full section 179 deduction, and then discuss the rules for other vehicles.
Many “work vehicles” that, by their nature, are not likely to be used for personal purposes will usually always qualify for full Section 179 deduction. This includes the following vehicles:
- Vehicles that can seat nine-plus passengers behind the driver’s seat (i.e.: Hotel / Airport shuttle vans, etc.).
- Vehicles with: (1) a fully-enclosed driver’s compartment / cargo area, (2) no seating at all behind the driver’s seat, and (3) no body section protruding more than 30 inches ahead of the leading edge of the windshield. In other words, a classic cargo van.
- Heavy construction equipment will qualify for the Section 179 deduction, as will forklifts and similar.
- Typical “over-the-road” Tractor Trailers will qualify.
