Many all-terrain vehicles in their calculations and layouts of car models refer to the pioneers-builders of tracked all-terrain vehicles on a differential turn.
One of the frequent references is to the builder Yukon. Egorov Yuri from the Sverdlovsk region of the urban-type settlement Makhnevo speaks at the forum of the website under the nickname Yukon, so I called this article "Tracked all-terrain vehicle "Yukon".
"The Yukon was built in 2010 and is now a classic of small crawler all-terrain vehicles. Many all-terrain vehicles have been built in the likeness of the Yukon."
Now consider it yourself all-terrain vehicle.
