2005 Black Tumbler Batmobile

The Black Tumbler, first seen in 2005, is the Batmobile used in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. In the films, it’s described as a prototype off-road military vehicle built by Wayne Enterprises.

In real life, the Tumbler was a fully functional movie prop built for filming. It was powered by a GM 5.7-liter V8 producing around 500 hp, along with a jet engine used for visual effects. The vehicle also had special suspension and control systems that allowed it to perform jumps of up to about six feet during stunts.
