It depends. TurboTax would automatically change the depreciation method to straight line (SL) if the business use dropped to 50% or less because it is required under the tax law. 

  • Review the vehicle entry screens to double check the selections and mileage.

Please update here to confirm your business  use percentage in 2024 (business miles divided by total miles).
