42127 THE BATMAN - BATMOBILE is a DC Comics TECHNIC set that was released on January 1, 2022. It is based on the 2022 film "The Batman".

Background

The Batmobile is the fictional car driven by the superhero Batman. Housed in the Batcave, which it accesses through a hidden entrance, the Batmobile is both a heavily armored tactical assault vehicle and a personalized custom-built pursuit and capture vehicle that is used by Batman in his fight against crime. Using the latest civilian performance technology, coupled with prototype military-grade hardware—most of which was developed by Wayne Enterprises—Batman creates an imposing hybrid monster car to prowl the streets of Gotham City.

The Batman's director Matt Reeves tweeted photos of the Batmobile for the film as a muscle car. Reeves conceptualized this incarnation as a car that Bruce Wayne built himself, taking parts of other cars to make it his own. In an interview with Empire magazine, Reeves also drew inspiration from the 1983 John Carpenter film Christine to give the Batmobile a horror-like presence. Four units were built for the film. The primary driving unit is powered by a V8 engine that generates 650 horsepower. Another unit was built on a Tesla chassis for indoor or night shots.
