What model is this vehicle?

Scary that a critter can cause this! https://www.wbay.com/2022/10/03/car-bursts-into-flames-when-driver-hits-deer-officials-say/

Good thing Paisley is OK and enjoyed the scene. I wonder if the deer caused the fire or she just dropped a hot bud into the carpet?

Yes, good research. matches up the photo. Thanks. When I first saw everything open I figured a blast and was wondering why the glass didn't go and the latches hold. But them getting everything out makes me think they left all those doors open and allowed the air to fuel an interior cabin fire. Had they shut them this might have snuffed itself out for lack of oxygen. She might have been smoking something, Dropped it on some flammable cargo. I bet this matters to dodge
