Batmobile Of The Future

  A second glance at these pictures of the Batmobile has me wondering what they were thinking when they made this street legal! The new Batmobile featured in the 2005 film, Batman Begins, looks more like a hummer with a Lamborghini sitting under the hood. Although this was never referred to as the Batmobile, the jet engine strapped to the back is a pretty good indication. Six of these were made for the production of the movie, each with a special purpose to meet the various stunt needs of the film: two regular, full-size driving Batmobiles for exterior shots; one full-size model with hydraulics for the jump sequences; one full-size functional vehicle with propane tanks to fuel the rocket blast out of the rear nozzle; one electrically powered car used for interior shots; and a 1/3-scale radio-controlled electric model for the biggest stunts in the film. So the next question, where do we get in line for the test drive?
