The climb to Jebel Shams asks more of a battery's cooling than anything on flat ground does, and the descent runs almost entirely on regeneration. That is easier on the brakes than it sounds — so much easier that the discs corrode from disuse rather than wear out, which is a fault we look for here specifically.
The YANGWANG U8 is four motors, one per wheel, and it can turn on the spot — none of which a general garage can diagnose. We cover quad-motor torque vectoring and the e4 platform's high-voltage architecture in Muscat, and tell you plainly when nothing needs doing.
