In his caption, Jiménez teased that the“car is very big”and“VERY FAST.”However,the most notable reveal was that this Batmobile will be electric.This marks a significant shift from Bruce’s previous vehicles, which have primarily run on gas, making it one of the most modern interpretations of the Batmobile to date.
It will be interesting to see how the story addresses the electric Batmobile, especially in terms of performance. It’s likely the vehicle will have a far longer battery life than something like a Tesla and will includemultiple backup systems in case its main power source fails dueto long-term use or unforeseen circumstances during missions.
So far, fanresponse to the new Batmobilehas been overwhelmingly positive. Many are excited for the series launch and have praised Jiménez’s bold creative direction. The electric Batmobile stands out as one of the most colorful in recent memory, withits vivid blue accents offering a fresh and welcome departure from the darker designsof past versions.

For many fans, Jiménez’s Batmobile design may have sparked a sense of déjà vu. The look feels like a perfect fusion of the vehicles fromThe Batmananimated series (2004–2008) and Matt Reeves’The Batman.The colors and sleek styling nod to the animated version, whilethe build resembles the 1968–70 Dodge Charger featured in Reeves’ film.
Jiménez has yet to confirm whether those versions inspired his design, but the similarities are hard to ignore. It would be especially exciting if theBattinson Batmobile served as an influence, given how widely that design has been praised. Seeing elements from these fan-favorite vehicles brought to life in a modernBatmancomic is a thrill in itself.
