"My speeder might be built like a dung beetle, but it could survive an acid storm on Mordis VI."

―Zam Wesell^[3]

The Koro-2 all-environment exodrive airspeeder, also known as the Koro-2 exodrive airspeeder, was a model of dragster-style airspeeder that was manufactured and sold by the Desler Gizh Outworld Mobility Corporation. The Clawdite assassin Zam Wesell favored this type of speeder, using one of them during her work prior to the Clone Wars. The Koro-2 was an upgraded version of the original Koro-1 speeder.

History[]

Zam Wesell's Koro-2 was the assassin's personal model, used as a lean, speedy getaway vehicle. Designed to survive in hostile environments, the pressurized cockpit had a two-week air supply. Zam's speeder featured no offensive weapons, relying strictly on speed and agility—or, on occasion, Zam's blaster pistol, fired out the window at fleeing targets or pursuing law enforcers. Acquired on one of the billions of heavily metallic worlds controlled by the Mining Guild, Zam went against the designer's wishes to keep the vehicle on hostile planets by introducing it to the urban planets of Denon and Coruscant.

Her airspeeder had a printed registration sticker as a mining permit for the Teraab sector. The cockpit also contained special oils for the Clawdite's use. The left mandible held a secret compartment for her sniper rifle. Additionally, the vehicle contained room in a compartment for her ASN-121 assassin droid.

After her attempt to assassinate Padmé Amidala on Coruscant failed, Zam fled from the Senator's Jedi bodyguards in her waiting airspeeder. Zam led the Jedi on a wild chase through Galactic City, though Anakin Skywalker managed to jump onto her speeder, and in the struggle that followed, Zam accidentally damaged the controls. The Koro-2 spun out of control, crashing into Vos Gesal Street in the Uscru District. Zam left the flaming wreckage behind, seeking refuge in the Outlander Club. She was killed shortly thereafter by Jango Fett.

Koro-2 airspeeders were still in use as of 12 ABY, on worlds such as Coruscant.
