2024 Prius Prime XSE Premium hit by city bus ; total loss?

https://reddit.com/link/1vsl3jt/video/gagjynnhsbkh1/player

My pripri was involved in an accident with a city bus.

The bus hit the passenger side of the car. From what I can see:

  • Both passenger-side doors are damaged
  • Front passenger window is shattered
  • There’s significant damage around the rear door/quarter area
  • The rear passenger-side wheel looks bent/out of alignment, so I’m worried there may be suspension or structural damage

The car is currently being assessed by insurance, but I’m curious if anyone here has had similar damage to a Gen 5 Prius/Prius Prime.

I know nobody can tell for certain from photos , I guess I am mainly looking for experiences from people who’ve had similar side-impact damage and what the eventual repair estimate/write-off decision was.
