Can I deduct sales tax from the purchase of a new car in 2021

I bought a new car in 2021 can I deduct the sales tax on my Federal return

Yes, if you choose to deduct your sales taxes paid during the year instead of your state income taxes paid.

See State and Local General Sales Tax for the specific instructions on deducting sales taxes instead of income taxes.
