Concrete driveway beyond repair?

Hi all, I’m looking to repair or replace this concrete driveway. As you can see it’s heavily damaged and most of it was caused by the neighbor’s 20 year old tree with roots that have cracked and lifted the concrete.

I’m considering repairing the concrete but I’m afraid it’s beyond repair. I’m open to replacing the entire driveway. That’d allow me to add a small 10x10 turnaround pad as well since I’m on a slightly busy street.

The other option is to demo all concrete and go with asphalt. I do like the black look as it’ll match with the white exterior of my house.

Some folks have suggested overlaying the asphalt on top of concrete but some research I’ve done says that’s not a good idea.

Any thoughts?

P.s the last photo is ai generated of what I want the final result to look like.
