The Krawler Model 2 is a light-duty tractor from Zokesia. It was produced by Logi Motor Company.
Development
With the success of the Krawler Model 2 tracked tractor from Weisstwuste-Woline, the recently founded Logi Motor Company was looking for ways to break into the regional farming market and expand on the success of their first tractor, the Logi 7N. Just a year after the Model 2's launch, Logi unveiled the Model A as a direct comepetitor. With similar track layout, Weisstwuste-Woline filed a suit in Zokesia for patent infringement, however the legal battle was settled out of court in the following years, and WW was never able to decisively prove it was a stolen copy. Logi engineers from the time had been hired after the recent Puge-Tatar Independence War which could have contributed to several designers sharing the same design prior to leaving Puge-Tatar.
Design
Featuring a two-cylinder V engine, and powered by two 0.625m drive sprockets, the Model A came was just under 4 tons. It had a low hood design and electric starter, and a two-point hitch for farm implements. It saw reasonable success, but was not as popular in continental climates in West Kolus as normal tractors such as the Logi 7N and the Kian Deere Model B. The model was discontinued in 2124.
