The Tesla Model S is the oldest Teslas in the country, and the ones whose packs need the most honest assessment, 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 drive-unit and pack work, plus the route and charging profile changes that a thousand-kilometre country needs.
