How much more is the repair cost for a Tesla after hitting a deer compared to a Toyota Corolla?

Fair question. The insurance for the car is for sure more expensive. Insurance would cover yhe repairs.

Drive train and battery have an 8 year 120K mile warranty.

Charging at home is roughly 2/3 the cost of what we spent on gas for a VW golf prior. Both cars are fairly new so no other repairs to talk about, but no oil changes, transmission fluid, spark plugs, etc.

Cost of ownership appears to be cheaper, tho like I said insurance is more expensive.

Yes, the repair costs of new EVs are very high. That's why the insurance costs of those have skyrocketed:
