One workshop, in Muscat, and that is deliberate: the equipment an EV actually needs — cell-level battery work, high-voltage insulation testing, manufacturer software — does not split usefully across small branches. Owners from Sohar and Sur drive in, and the mobile unit covers the Capital Area.
The Volkswagen is the ID range arrives both through the dealer and privately, and the two need different software. What it needs from us is MEB platform diagnostics, charging-control coding and infotainment localisation — and a straight answer about what it does not need, which is the part most owners say was missing everywhere else. Oman is not a short country. Salalah is close to a thousand kilometres from Muscat, and the charging between them thins out fast once you are past Nizwa. An electric car here has to be planned around in a way it simply does not in Doha or Dubai.
