Sorry to see the wreck photos. Hopefully everyone is well.

Not enough information. The insurance company will know.

In the end, anything is fixable. If the insurance company settles with you for a "total loss", the car will be sold into the salvage market (Copart) and possibly repaired and sold with a salvage title. Or broken down for parts.

I'm sorry for your accident and I'm grateful no humans were hurt. I would suggest you put your vehicle up on a lift and have a look at it from underneath. It's impossible to tell the real extent of the damage without putting it on a lift. If the frame is bent then it should be totaled. If the frame isn't bent then it might be fixable. A bent frame was always my engineer father's standard. He always said that a vehicle with a bent frame is never the same after an accident and that the weakened bent frame would be even more vulnerable to damage in another accident.

Is that an airbag by the feet?

Fixable as a salvage most probably:

Glad no one was hurt. Newer, lighter vehicles don’t hold up as well in a collision. Hit a deer about 15 years ago in a ML350. That was, I think, the last full frame vehicle MB produced. Broken headlamp, dented hood, fender needed realignment. The air bags didn’t even deploy.
