Total loss vehicles cannot pass normal inspection after repair. The definition and criteria for determining a total loss vehicle are as follows: Definition of a Total Loss Vehicle: A total loss vehicle refers to an insured vehicle that is completely destroyed or severely damaged to the point where repairs are not economically viable. With insurance company approval, total loss vehicles can be traded, typically through auction or resale, and most end up being sold in the used car market. Criteria for Determining a Total Loss: When the residual value of the damaged goods plus the costs of rescue, cleanup, repair, and continued transportation to the destination exceed the vehicle's value upon arrival at the destination, it is deemed a total loss.
