For better traction.
the two rovers are:- Spirit and Opportunity.
On wheels, driven by electrical motors. It moves very slowly, transmitting pictures and data to an orbiting relay station and then to Earth; controllers on Earth review the data, and transmit new commands to the Mars rovers. Think of it as the solar system's slowest radio-controlled toy car.
Several rovers have been sent to Mars, including Sojourner (1997), Spirit (2004), Opportunity (2004), Curiosity (2012), and Perseverance (2021). Sojourner was part of NASA's Mars Pathfinder mission, while Spirit and Opportunity were twin rovers from the Mars Exploration Rover mission. Curiosity is part of the Mars Science Laboratory mission, and Perseverance is part of the Mars 2020 mission. Each rover has contributed significantly to our understanding of the Martian environment and geology.
As of 2021, there are several active Mars rovers, such as Perseverance and Curiosity. In addition to Mars rovers, there are other robotic rovers deployed on celestial bodies like the Moon and other planets. The exact number of rovers in operation worldwide varies as missions launch and conclude.
So far, Nasa has successfully acquired four Mars rovers: the Mars Pathfinder, Sojourner, Opportunity, and the Spirit. These were managed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Mars Science Laboratory.
The Mars Rovers "Opportunity" and "Spirit" have six wheels each with there own motor. The Mars Rovers also have a top speed of 50 mm/s (2 in/s) and an average speed of 10 mm/s.
No one has sent 15 rovers to Mars
Mars rovers were made sometime in the 1970's
All of their Mars Rovers have wheels.

No. But rovers have.

As of November 2016 there are two operational Mars rovers: Opportunity and Curiosity.
