It's the actual prop car used during the filming of the Dark Knight's second big-screen adventure.
Classic Auto Mall describes the long-nosed coupé’s exterior as “bat shit crazy cool,” and it’s hard to disagree. Caldow’s creation has an Art Deco-inspired fiberglass body. It’s about as striking a movie car as you’ll ever see, especially its Daytona Prototype-like jet engine nose and the tall batwings that sandwich its slide-away cockpit. The fighter jet-style cockpit somehow has room for three passengers, by the way.
Because it is a movie car and not an actual production vehicle, its powertrain leaves something to be desired. The vehicle is powered by a single electric motor that will allow it to reach a maximum speed of 30 mph. Safe to say, it might struggle to keep up with the Joker’s ride of choice. It makes up for its lack of pep with some bonkers gadgets, including a flame thrower.Anyone hoping to add this Batmobile to their collection should prepare to spend big.
