We have good news for California business owners: Supplying your business with new vehicles might be more affordable than you think with Section 179 of the IRS tax code.
Section 179 can benefit businesses by allowing a full or partial tax write-off for the cost of certain equipment — in this case, a vehicle — in the same year it is purchased and used for the business. That means the business can enjoy the tax benefits sooner rather than later.
If your business needs new vehicles, the team at Land Rover Livermore is here to assist you in your search! Not only do we help individuals find their dream SUV, but we can also provide businesses like yours with luxury SUVs. We pride ourselves on offering a generous lineup of new Land Rover and Range Rover models for drivers in the Livermore, CA, area and beyond.
We’ll be happy to give you a tour of our available inventory, answer any questions you may have, and help you save wherever possible. If you want to take advantage of the Section 179 deduction, learn more below!
How to Save on Land Rover Vehicles with Section 179 Tax Benefits
When you purchase a qualifying vehicle for business use, Section 179 lets you keep more money in your business by reducing the amount of taxes you owe. In order for you to take advantage of the Section 179 deduction, the vehicle you purchase for your business has to be used more than 50% for the business. The vehicle is also required to be put into use during the same year you buy it.1
While the vehicle may be new or used, it has to be purchased in order to qualify for Section 179. A gifted or inherited vehicle won’t be accepted.
Certain Land Rover SUVs may qualify for the Section 179 deduction, but there’s a specific deduction limit for SUVs that weigh over 6,000 pounds and up to 14,000 pounds. For the 2025 tax year, the limit is $31,300.1
Let’s look at a few SUVs from the Land Rover and Range Rover lineups that are over 6,000 pounds. The following SUV models may qualify for the SUV deduction:
- Range Rover SE (with standard wheelbase, 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine):
- 7,385 pounds, Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW)
- Range Rover Velar S:
- 12,390 pounds (GVW)
- Defender 110, Defender S:
- 5 seats: 6,845 pounds (GVW)
- 5+2 seats: 7,050 pounds (GVW)
- Defender 90 V8
- 6,700 pounds (GVW)
- Discovery, Discovery S
- 6,875 pounds (GVW)
According to KBB.com, lighter vehicles may also qualify for a Section 179 deduction, but it won’t be as much as vehicles over 6,000 pounds.1
