Kia Telluride

$38,000-$55,000

Is a Telluride a Tax Write-Off?

Short answer: It depends on the trim: some Telluride configurations are rated just over 6,000 lbs GVWR and some are under, which changes how much you can write off in year one.

Over 6,000 lbs, the business-use share can use 100% bonus depreciation without passenger-car caps; under it, first-year depreciation is capped at roughly $20,000. Check the door-jamb sticker for your exact vehicle before buying.

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.
