Harley-Davidson Softail motorcycle car loan interest deduction

Up to $10,000/yr

Does the Harley-Davidson Softail Qualify for Car Loan Interest Deduction?

Short answer: Probably: the Harley-Davidson Softail comes off the line in York, Pennsylvania, so a new one bought with a loan for personal driving can qualify for the up-to-$10,000 interest deduction.

The loan must be for a new vehicle for personal use, taken out after 2024, and secured by the car. The deduction phases out above $100,000 of income ($200,000 joint); leases and used cars don't qualify.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
