2018 Tumbler Batmobile
Proposals received : 1
The Batmobile is, without a doubt, the most legendary fictional vehicle ever created. Built on a steel tube frame with body panels crafted from Kevlar, carbon fiber, sheet metal, and fiberglass, this masterpiece is as rugged as it is iconic. Now, it's about to become even more extraordinary.
The Batmobile is, without a doubt, the most legendary fictional vehicle ever created. Built on a steel tube frame with body panels crafted from Kevlar, carbon fiber, sheet metal, and fiberglass, this masterpiece is as rugged as it is iconic. Just like in the films, this Tumbler features functional flap actuators and a simulated jet engine for that signature fiery effect.
Now, it's about to become even more extraordinary.
Michael, the proud new owner, has set his sights on an electrifying transformation. His goal? To take this already formidable machine and unleash insane levels of power. “The current motor is too small—I want the Batmobile to be insanely more powerful than it is today.” He expects the car to be fast with as much range as possible, delivering as much power and torque as possible, and a top speed of 130mph.
He's searching for a top-tier builder to convert this ultra-rare, custom-built Tumbler from Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy into a high-performance EV. There are only 10 of these in existence, and Michael wants his to be a one-of-a-kind monster.
Michael is open to used EV components and has no preference for motor or battery type—as long as it delivers serious performance. However, he needs the car to support both home charging and fast charging at public stations.
Regarding the dashboard and gauges, Michael wants all ICE related instruments to be removed and replaced with EV gauges.
Besides EV conversion, Michael would like the exterior color to be chrome with a silver interior if possible. Ideally, builders interested in this project will include the interior and exterior work in their proposal.
The Batmobile is currently in Virginia, but Michael is willing to ship it cross-country for the right builder. He expects regular photo and video updates and would like the option to visit the shop during the build.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work on one of the rarest and most iconic vehicles in the world. If you're up for the challenge, let’s make this Batmobile legendary.
