This Batmobile Is Up For Grabs, But Can You Afford It?

Batman is one of the most popular superheroes ever and all kids dreamed of becoming one. Now if you’re one of the 10 wealthy people with enough luck, you can make that childhood dream come true. Well in a way, as you can now purchase a replica of the Tumbler, the Batmobile used in Christopher Nolan’s Batman franchise. 

Warner Bros’ spin-off luxury arm, Wayne Enterprises, is selling 10 Tumblers to lucky customers who can shell out $2.99 million (roughly ₹25.14 crore). However, despite being able to buy one, it can’t be used on the road as it is not road-legal. 

The Tumbler needs no introduction. It is the chariot of one of the most sinister superheroes the world has ever seen. Like in the movie, the Tumbler replica is also finished entirely in black but gets some copper-coloured accents. It also gets fake gun turrets and a fake jet exhaust to make it feel as authentic as the Batmobile in the movie. 

While Warner Bros hasn’t shown the interior images of the Tumbler, it does mention that the Batmobile will get a digital dashboard, 10-inch screens, AC, GPS, one-way mirrored glass screens, two-seat configuration with 5-point racing harness and a choice between mph and kmph gauges. 

The Tumbler is powered by a 6.2-litre V8 petrol engine (a Chevrolet LS3 engine) producing 525 bhp and 629 Nm, mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission. The Tumbler measures 4663 mm in length, 2835 mm in width and 1524 mm in height and weighs around 2500 kg.
