NEW YORK, April 30 — In a groundbreaking collaboration, Automobili Pininfarina, Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, and Relevance International have teamed up to create a bespoke collection of hypercars inspired by Bruce Wayne, the billionaire persona of the iconic DC Super Hero Batman.
This exclusive lineup includes two models: the B95 hyper Barchetta and the Battista hyper GT, both available in “Gotham” and “Dark Knight” versions. These vehicles are not just cars but a redefinition of luxury, reflecting Bruce Wayne’s sophisticated taste and the advanced technology emblematic of Wayne Enterprises.
Paolo Dellachà, CEO of Automobili Pininfarina, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership, noting, “Aligning with Wayne Enterprises and Warner Bros. underscores our commitment to pioneering sustainable, advanced technologies and expanding our reach to new, diverse audiences.”
The design team, led by Chief Design Officer Dave Amantea, took inspiration from Wayne’s dual identity, crafting features that cater to both his refined public persona and the technologically enhanced crime-fighting needs of his alter ego. The cars boast innovative designs such as a new HMI display enhanced by an Alfred Pennyworth-inspired voice instruction and aerodynamic enhancements including tailgate shark fins and louver openings.
On the technical front, each model is powered by a 120kWh lithium-ion battery and four motors, producing a breathtaking 1,900 horsepower. This setup enables the cars to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than two seconds.
The interiors are just as bespoke. The “Gotham” version features tan leather with bespoke quilting, aiming to mirror Bruce Wayne’s civilian elegance, while the “Dark Knight” version uses black Alcantara and leather with black and gold stitching, reflecting his darker, vigilante side.
Robert Oberschelp, Head of Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, highlighted the project’s goal to blend top-tier brand collaboration with the unique elements of Bruce Wayne’s lifestyle, resulting in a product that transcends traditional automotive design.
These hypercars will be available for purchase exclusively at BruceWayneX.com and will soon be showcased in an invite-only live retail experience in NYC, offering a firsthand glimpse into the future of luxury motoring — a fitting tribute to the legacy of Gotham’s most enigmatic figure.
