The BYD DESTROYER 05 is a plug-in saloon, so there is an engine to service as well as a pack, which is the part a general garage misses. Muscat is humid and sits on salt air; an hour inland at Nizwa the heat is dry; up on Jebel Akhdar it is cool enough to need a jacket. A pack driven over one weekend can see all three, and each of them stresses a different part of it.
We check it against all three, and cover Blade LFP packs repaired at cell level rather than swapped, plus the cooling work a long drive inland demands.
