¿Va a comprar un vehĂ­culo nuevo? Los intereses del prĂ©stamo para automĂłvil podrĂ­an calificar para una deducciĂłn de impuestos

Esta es una Ă©poca del año en la que muchas personas compran un vehĂ­culo nuevo. Lo que quizás no sepan es que esta compra podrĂ­a calificar para un beneficio tributario. Bajo la ReducciĂłn de impuestos para las familias trabajadora (en inglĂ©s), los contribuyentes podrĂ­an deducir los intereses de su prĂ©stamo para automĂłvil si cumplen con ciertos requisitos de elegibilidad. Repasemos los requisitos básicos para esta deducciĂłn.

¿QuiĂ©n puede reclamar la deducciĂłn?

La deducciĂłn está disponible tanto para los contribuyentes que detallan sus deducciones como para quienes no las detallan. Se debe incluir el nĂşmero de identificaciĂłn del vehĂ­culo (VIN, por sus siglas en inglĂ©s) en la declaraciĂłn de impuestos de cada año en que se reclame la deducciĂłn. La deducciĂłn anual máxima es de $10,000 y se reduce gradualmente para los contribuyentes cuyo ingreso bruto ajustado modificado supere los $100,000 ($200,000 para quienes presentan una declaraciĂłn conjunta).

¿QuĂ© vehĂ­culos califican?

El vehĂ­culo puede ser un automĂłvil, una miniván, un vehĂ­culo utilitario deportivo (SUV, por sus siglas en inglĂ©s), una camioneta tipo pickup o una motocicleta. Además, el vehĂ­culo debe:

  • Tener una clasificaciĂłn de peso bruto vehicular de menos de 14,000 libras.
  • Haber pasado por el ensamblaje final en los Estados Unidos.
  • Ser nuevo. Los vehĂ­culos usados no califican.

Maneras de verificar el ensamblaje final

¿QuĂ© intereses califican?

Los intereses deben haberse pagado sobre un préstamo que:

  • Se haya obtenido despuĂ©s del 31 de diciembre de 2024.
  • Se haya utilizado para comprar un vehĂ­culo que califique y que sea usado por el contribuyente.
  • EstĂ© garantizado por un gravamen sobre el vehĂ­culo.
  • Sea para uso personal y no comercial.
  • Sea para un vehĂ­culo de uso personal (no comercial).

Los arrendamientos no califican. Si posteriormente se refinancia un préstamo para un vehículo que califica, los intereses pagados sobre la cantidad refinanciada generalmente califican.

IRS Tax Tips

Nov. 3, 2026

Issue Number: Tax Tip 2026-79

Purchasing a new vehicle? Car loan interest could be eligible for a tax deduction

Now is a popular time of year for people to purchase a new vehicle. What they might not know is that this new purchase could qualify for a tax benefit. Under the Working Family Tax Cuts, taxpayers may be able to deduct their car loan interest, if certain eligibility criteria are met.

Let’s go over the basic qualifications for this deduction.

Who can claim the deduction?
The deduction is available for both itemizing and non-itemizing taxpayers. The VIN must be included on the tax return for any year the deduction is claimed. The maximum annual deduction is $10,000 and phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $100,000 ($200,000 for joint filers).

What vehicles qualify?
The vehicle type can include a car, minivan, SUV, pick-up truck, or motorcycle. Additionally, the vehicle must:

  • Have a gross vehicle weight rating of less than 14,000 pounds
  • Have undergone final assembly in the United States
  • Be new. Used vehicles do not qualify

Ways to verify final assembly

What interest qualifies?
Interest must be paid on a loan that:

  • Was originated after Dec. 31, 2024
  • Was used to purchase a qualifying vehicle used by the taxpayer
  • Was secured by a lien on the vehicle
  • Was for personal use and not for business use
  • Was for a personal use (non-business) vehicle

Leases are not eligible. If a qualifying vehicle loan is later refinanced, interest paid on the refinanced amount is generally eligible.
