Save More on Your Next Ford: Tax Incentives for U.S.-Assembled Vehicles Explained

The automotive market is changing in ways that could make buying a new Ford vehicle even more rewarding for drivers in Red Bank and throughout New Jersey. Thanks to the recent One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed into law and updated IRS guidance, consumers can now benefit from a new federal tax incentive designed to reward purchases of vehicles assembled right here in the United States. At George Wall Ford in Red Bank, NJ, we’re excited to help our customers understand what this means and how they can make the most of these new tax opportunities when shopping for a new Ford. 

Under this new federal law, taxpayers may be eligible to deduct up to $10,000 per year in interest paid on auto loans for vehicles that meet specific criteria, most notably being newly purchased and assembled in the United States. To qualify, the vehicle must undergo its final assembly on U.S. soil, be financed through an auto loan that originated after December 31, 2024, and be used for personal (non-business) purposes. This deduction is available for tax years 2025-2028. Both itemizing and non-itemizing taxpayers can claim this deduction—so long as the IRS requirements for final assembly and loan documentation are satisfied.

Ford is a leader in U.S. manufacturing, with a large portion of its trucks, SUVs, and cars assembled across American factories. Eligible Ford models include popular vehicles such as the 

• Trucks: F-150, Ranger, Super Duty

• SUVs: Bronco, Escape, Explorer, Expedition

• Vans: Transit, E-Transit, Econoline

• Cars: Mustang

Knowing whether your new vehicle qualifies is easy—your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) contains information about where the vehicle underwent final assembly. Many Ford models sold at George Wall Ford qualify right now, meaning buyers could benefit from this tax deduction on top of any current manufacturer or dealership incentives. It’s a great reason to talk to our finance team about how a qualifying Ford can not only fit your lifestyle but also help reduce your federal tax burden.
