If You've Got A Spare $3M Why Not Buy A Batmobile
Warner Bros. has sent superhero fandom into overdrive with the launch of a limited run of fully functional Tumbler-style Batmobiles, turning one of Hollywood’s most recognisable props into a driveable, road-going fantasy for a handful of very wealthy fans.

Inspired by Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy, the production-spec Tumblers trade Gotham’s skyline for real streets, blending movie-authentic looks with engineering that can actually cope with traffic, speed bumps, and a human driver who is not Christian Bale.

With only ten units available worldwide, these $3 million Tumblers are aimed at high-end collectors, automotive museums, and die-hard Batman enthusiasts. Their blend of Hollywood heritage, precision craftsmanship, and limited availability makes them instant collectibles likely to appreciate in value, especially among fans of film memorabilia and extreme custom vehicles.

Built around bespoke tubular frames and heavy-duty suspension, they are designed to handle the weight and wild proportions of the Tumbler silhouette while remaining controllable at realistic speeds. Gone is the jet-engine movie magic, replaced by a 6.2-liter LS3 V8 producing 525 horsepower tuned for muscular performance. The cockpit keeps the fighter-jet theatre alive with multi-screen layouts, aviation-style switches, and central seating, but behind the drama sits real-world instrumentation, safety systems, and the sort of ergonomics that allow owners to drive more than a few hundred metres without needing a chiropractor.

The run is deliberately tiny, aimed at collectors who already treat cars as art and film history as a portfolio. Pricing lands firmly in supercar and hypercar territory, reflecting the complexity of fabrication, licensing costs, and the cachet of owning an officially sanctioned piece of the Batman universe rather than an unofficial kit car.

Just as Aston Martin leans on Bond-spec DB5s and Universal trades on Fast & Furious hero cars, Warner Bros. is monetising the Batmobile’s mythos in metal and rubber. 

Every day our fanatical team scour the interweb, our auctioneers, the classifieds and the dealers for all the very latest 'must see' and simply 'must buy' stuff. It's garbage-free with there's something for every Petrolhead, from the weird and wonderful to ooooh moments, to the greatest and often most frustrating car quizzes on the planet ... So grab a cuppa and enjoy!
