Buying a car through your LLC
Varies
Should I Buy a Car Through My LLC?
Short answer: Your LLC can buy a car and deduct the business-use share, but titling it to the LLC doesn't make personal use deductible.
Single-member LLCs follow the same rules as sole proprietors. Mileage logs decide the deduction either way.
Records to keep: Keep receipts or invoices, proof of payment, and a short note of the business purpose.
