There’s a real Wayne Enterprises, and it’s selling a $3 million Batmobile
Hollywood has moved far past the Christopher Nolan era of Batman films, but the Dark Knight trilogy’s influence still looms large over pop culture. Now, a full 12 years afterThe Dark Knight Rises hit theaters, aspiring Caped Crusaders can finally purchase their own, full-size Batmobile—provided you also have Bruce Wayne-level wealth.
Wayne Enterprises—an actual, licensed company dedicated to billionaire-appropriate luxury accessories—has announced it is accepting pre-orders on the Tumbler, aka the Dark Knight’s military-grade Batmobile. Made from Kevlar, carbon fiber, and sheet metal fiberglass, the roughly 5,511-lbs vehicle includes a 525 horsepower, 6.2L LS3 V-8 engine, “advanced software upgrades,” and a two-seat interior. Although the jet engine and gun turrets featured in the Nolan films are non-functioning replicas on the real Tumbler, it does feature an actual smokescreen system for your inevitable evasive getaways.
