As a DoorDasher, every mile you drive impacts your earnings. Today, we're breaking down the newly announced 2025 IRS mileage rate and showing you exactly how to maximize your tax deductions using the best mileage tracking app to keep more of your hard-earned money.

Breaking News: 2025 National Mileage Rate Announced

The IRS has just released the 2025 standard mileage rate: 70 cents per mile. This increase reflects rising costs of vehicle ownership and operation, including fuel prices, vehicle maintenance and repairs, insurance costs, vehicle depreciation, and inflation adjustments.

For DoorDashers, this means you can deduct 70 cents for every business mile you drive in 2025. Let's put this into perspective: if you drive 1,000 miles per month for DoorDash, that's a potential tax deduction of $700 monthly or $8,400 annually!
