My 2018 Soul EV fell victim to a deer at 50 mph (deer is also a victim). The impact left everything forward and to right of the engine mangled. The shop recommended by the insurance company is estimating $11,000 to repair. I have my doubts about the estimate, as it doesn’t seem to reflect the cost of replacing the ev components forward of the engine. Anyone have experience repairing a soul ev or a view of whether $11,000 sounds right?

My goal is just not to waste time trying to repair with unrealistic estimates.
 
Most insurance companies will just write off an EV as they fear battery damage/fire.
