2018: New rules for depreciation on autos.

Reference: HR1 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

For passenger autos with a gross unloaded weight of under 6k pounds, the maximum amount of allowable depreciation is $10,000 for the first year, $16,000 for the second year, $9,600 for the third year and $5,760 for the fourth and later years.  These amounts will be increased for inflation.

These are significant improvements over prior law.
