Why do I need to apply large force (10 kN) to move my robot?

edit

I modeled my physical, simple diff-drive robot with two larger drive wheels and two casters. The robot total weight is around 30 kg. Body size is L=0.512 m, W=0.384 m , H=0.211 m

When I interact with the model (Apply Force/Torque) in Gazebo, I need to use very large forces to move it: 10 kN barely moves it, 100 kN pushes it around 1 m forward. The force feels completely disproportional.

Is there anything wrong with my model because this does not pass a smell test?

Appreciate any feedback.

The body inertial is as follows:

 <inertial>
  <mass value="30.0"/>
  <inertia ixx="0.7666624999999999" ixy="0.0" ixz="0.0" iyy="1.024" iyz="0.0" izz="0.47994250000000005"/>
</inertial>

The entire URDF:
