These are built to very rigorous automotive standards. For example, the tires are not supposed to fall off.

@paul@tapbots.social 173!? That’s an astonishingly small number. Might as well scrap them all.

@paul@tapbots.social the number of tires that fall off should be kept as close to 0 as possible.

@paul@tapbots.social They don’t perform well on Earth because they require lower gravity to prevent the wheels and body panels from detaching, and an environment devoid of water to avoid rusting or short-circuiting. Great on Mars though.
