At Land Rover Cerritos, our team is committed to helping you make the most of your investment. Explore our selection of premium Land Rover SUVs designed to deliver performance, luxury, and practicality for your business needs. Continue reading below to learn how Section 179 can benefit you.

What is Section 179?

Section 179 enables businesses to immediately deduct the purchase cost of eligible equipment and vehicles used for business purposes within the same tax year. Instead of spreading out the deduction over several years through depreciation, companies can take advantage of the full tax benefit upfront.

However, there are limits. According to the IRS, Section 179 deduction dollar limits for 2025 are the following:

  • Section 179 Deduction Limit: $1,250,000.
    The IRS notes that this maximum deduction amount will be reduced if the total cost of qualifying Section 179 property placed into service during the tax year exceeds $3,130,000.
  • Section 179 Deduction Cap for SUVs: $31,300.
    Eligible sport utility vehicles have a separate deduction limit under Section 179 rules.
  • Bonus Depreciation Rate: 40%.
    This applies to certain qualified assets purchased after September 27, 2017, and placed in service between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025.

Important: To be eligible for the Section 179 tax deduction, a vehicle or other qualifying property must be used primarily (over 50%) for business purposes and must be purchased—not received as a gift or inheritance. For complete details and eligibility requirements, visit IRS.gov or consult your tax advisor.

Land Rover Vehicles Section 179 Deduction Eligibility

According to Section179.org, Section 179 vehicles fall into three categories:

  • Vocational vehicles of any weight or vehicles over 14,000 pounds.

    These types of vehicles can qualify for the full Section 179 deduction.

  • Passenger vehicles (SUVs, trucks, and vans) that have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 6,000-14,000 pounds.

    These types of vehicles are limited to a maximum Section 179 expense deduction of $31,300.

  • Passenger vehicles (traditional cars) that have a GVWR of under 6,000 pounds.

    These types of vehicles also have a deduction limit. Although official IRS information for this limit in 2025 is not yet available, Section179.org estimates this first-year limit to be $20,400 when the vehicle is used 100% for business.

Let’s take a look at the following Land Rover and Range Rover vehicles to see which category each model may fall into.
