You Could Save on Taxes by Purchasing a Porsche Cayenne This Year

Who doesn’t love getting a break on their taxes? And if you have a business, there’s a potential tax savings you can take on vehicles. It’s called Internal Revenue Service Section 179. It can be a substantial amount off your taxes – up to the entire value of the vehicle –  and, it can be taken all in the first year of ownership. 

And here’s the good news: the Porsche Cayenne is a luxury model that qualifies under the terms of Section 179. 

The federal government uses Section 179 as an incentive to get businesses to purchase equipment – in this case vehicles – as a way of investing in themselves and their businesses, thereby driving growth and success.

Like all IRS tax code matters, it’s a bit complicated. The deduction can be claimed when:

• Vehicles purchased, financed or leased are for commercial use and put into use during the same tax year as the deduction is claimed
• Vehicles have a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVWR) more than 6,000. A good example is the Porsche Cayenne
• Vehicles are used for business purposes more than half the time
• The total value of the vehicles can’t be more than $3.5 million, and the total amount deducted can’t exceed $1 million

Other Ways To Save

There are other strategies for tax savings on vehicles that you should consider. We aren’t a tax advisor (don’t even play one on TV) and strongly suggest you consult your own accountant or tax advisor about Section 179 compared to other ways to save.
