In the famous car gallery VAN DARYL,located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, the world's first working prototype electric Batmobile, created by a team of engineers and designers led by artist and architect Nguyen Dac Trung, is on display. The gallery specializes in showcasing rare and futuristic electric vehicles inspired by art, comics or movies.


Development of an environmentally friendly Batmobilelasted two years. The electric car is a more nimble, faster, and more environmentally friendly version of the original Tumbler, a gas-powered Batmobile prototype also built by 23-year-old Nguyen Dak Chung.
The young enthusiast drew ideas for creating the Batmobile from Christopher Nolan's famous film trilogy about the Dark Knight (2005-2012).


The futuristic electric car is a fully functional Batman combat vehicle capable of driving around the track at a top speed of 104 km/h.

The Batmobile is the iconic weapon of the Dark Knight.his crime-fighting arsenal was created in the Hanoi-based artist Macro Studio with the involvement of automotive engineers, designers and mechanics.

The car has a high-strength steel frame, onwhich the real armored panels are attached. When forming the case, ABS plastic, composite materials, steel and carbon fiber were used. Some parts of the Batmobile were made by hand, and some of the components that require high precision were printed on a 3D printer.


Batmobile weight - 600 kg with overall dimensions3.7×2.4×1.3 mm. The cabin has space for the driver and passenger. A lithium-ion battery is used to power the electric motor. Pneumatic doors open remotely. 13-inch wheels are installed on the front axle, and 18-inch wheels on the rear. The Batmobile has 4 external 360-degree video cameras that display the image on monitors in the cabin.

Enthusiasts are going to sell the only electric Batmobile in the future, but so far neither the price nor the terms of sale have been indicated on the VAN DARYL gallery website.
