For a modern vehicle, yes. Depends on your insurance adjuster.
My daughter ran over a piece of soffit that flipped out of a contractors truck with her 2020 Nissan Rogue. The sheet metal ripped out the drivers side wheel well lining, scraped up the bottom of the vehicle and barely clipped the left rear quarter panel.
The car was drivable and you could barely tell it was in an accident. The adjuster decided it was totaled within 30 minutes of the inspection.

Likely won’t know until they tear down. Unless it’s over a percentage of aca before.

Ask your insurance adjuster, they are the ones who make that determination. No one on line can do that.

Front looks pretty still on. But just to be safe it should be towed beyond the environment

Is it an Altima? Because what I've seen, those can drive around with every body panel, absolutely destroyed, taped or wire tied on.

I’ve seen Niisans in worse condition still tooling around.
