Was this armored car designed for the Dark Knight? New images, which purportedly show the new Batmobile, were posted this morning by two Detroit-based Instagram users (one of whom has since removed his photo). The pictures above and below were reportedly taken near the River Rouge suburb of Detroit, where director Zack Snyder has been filming his Man of Steel follow-up Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.
The photos, which were posted by Instagram user amacro13, have not been verified by Warner Bros. — but the car does look like it belongs in Gotham City. Slashfilm points out that the design is very similar to the Batmobile from the videogame Arkham Knight, which is being released by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment in June 2015. Based on the angles of the new pictures, it’s difficult to compare this Batmobile to the first official photos tweeted by Snyder, which show only the hood and rear wheels of the car.

If this is indeed the new Batmobile, it has a very different feel from the vehicles used in previous Batman films. The Batmobile introduced in the 1989 movie Batman resembled the sinuous art deco cars of the ’30s and ‘40s. Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy reinvented the Batmobile as a compact, military-type vehicle, modeled as a cross between a Lamborghini and a tank. This new Batmobile resembles a race car more than a classic car, but seems less industrial than the Nolan Batmobile. Its most intriguing new feature is the doors, which appear to open by rising up like wings, then close to form the car’s cockpit.
