Notes
This is a depiction of the Batmobile as featured in the 1989 film Batman and its sequel Batman Returns; in these movies the Batmobile was Batman's primary mode of transportation. It is powered by a jet turbine, capable of taking the vehicle up to 530 km/h (330 mph); it is also equipped with numerous gadgets, such as grappling hooks, bomb dispensers, oil slick dispensers, two Browning 1919 machine guns, and an afterburner exhaust. After it was used, the Batmobile was retired and stored in the Batcave under a tarp. The Batmobile's design was drawn up by Julian Caldow under director Tim Burton and Anton Furst. The car is based on a 1967 Chevrolet Impala; this was not Burton's first choice of vehicle, with an "unnamed Jaguar" and Ford Mustang being initial choices for the base vehicle, with the Impala chosen when attempts to secure either of those vehicles failed. The body of the vehicle was sculpted by Keith Short.
