The Moonrider is manufactured by Moonrider in India, and GoSun has signed a cooperation and marketing agreement to distribute the tractor in North America. [^6]

Tanner Whipps said CLAAS benchmarked the tractors in markets around the world and conducted customer interviews in North America, where customers requested more horsepower and higher hydraulic capacity, which the company addressed. [^7]
