The IRS has released the Section 280F depreciation deduction limits for passenger automobiles – including trucks and vans – first placed into service in 2023. For the second year in a row, the IRS released significantly higher limits for taxpayers.

For passenger autos acquired after 9/27/17, placed in service during 2023, and subject to bonus depreciation under IRC Sec.168(k), the depreciation limits are:

  • $20,200 for the first year
  • $19,500 for the second year
  • $11,700 for the third year, and
  • $6,960 for each succeeding year

For passenger autos placed in service during 2023 that are not subject to Section 168(k) bonus depreciation, the depreciation limits are:

  • $12,200 for the first year
  • $19,500 for the second year
  • $11,700 for the third year, and
  • $6,960 for each succeeding year
