Kia Sorento

$32,000-$50,000

Is a Sorento a Tax Write-Off?

Short answer: Partly: the Sorento is under 6,000 lbs GVWR, so business use is deductible but first-year depreciation is capped at roughly $20,000 under the luxury auto limits.

You can use either the standard mileage rate or actual expenses times your business-use percentage. Commuting is never deductible.

Records to keep: Keep a contemporaneous mileage log (date, miles, business purpose), business-use percentage, the purchase contract, and a photo of the door-jamb GVWR sticker.
