Batmobile from 'The Dark Knight' now on sale for $2.99 million
The Tumbler Batmobile from Christopher Nolan's 'Dark Knight trilogy is now up for sale. Warner Bros. Discovery is offering a highly exclusive, screen-accurate replica of the Batmobile used by Christian Bale's Batman for a staggering $2.99 million, in honour of Batman's 85th anniversary.
This limited run features just 10 units, available by invitation only, and provides fans with a chance to own the armoured, military-inspired vehicle made famous in the trilogy. While the Tumbler is drivable, it is not street-legal, making it ideal for private collections or closed circuits.
Built to match the movie version as closely as possible, each Tumbler is powered by a 6.2-litre LS3 V8 engine producing 525 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque. This power flows through a four-speed GM 4L85E automatic transmission with paddle shifters. The body construction includes Kevlar, carbon fibre, fibreglass, and steel for durability, mounted on a tubular aeronautical steel frame.
The Tumbler's dimensions are as imposing as its appearance, measuring 15 feet in length, 9 feet in width, and standing 5 feet tall. It weighs approximately 5,511 pounds and is equipped with four-wheel power disc brakes and oversized wheels – 15 inches in the front and 18.5 inches at the rear.
Although this replica lacks the functional weaponry seen in the movies, it does include features like imitation gun turrets and a jet engine simulation (without flames) to recreate the Batmobile's cinematic look. Inside, it boasts a meticulously designed cockpit with bespoke seating trim, a digital dashboard, and racing harnesses. Additional touches include a premium GPS, one-way mirrored glass, and black Alcantara headlining.
The Tumbler is available only in black, the classic colour of Batman's preferred ride, and comes with proof of authenticity from Warner Bros. Discovery and a unique serial number for each unit.
This ultra-collectable Batmobile is offered by the Wayne Enterprises Experience, Warner Bros. Discovery's luxury brand that caters to high-end Batman-inspired merchandise.
