The Batmobile is the car that Superhero, Batman drove with his trusty sidekick Robin as they fought evil.  First introduced in 1939 in a comic, the car has evolved over the years.  At first it was simply a red car with no special modifications, but over the years the car was enhanced and several versions exist.

When the Batman television series started in the 1960's, a car was built specifically for the purpose.  The car was actually a Lincoln Futura, which was a concept car that Ford was experimenting with.  Originally a Cadillac was chosen as the Batmobile, but at the last minute a change was made and they needed a car fast.  With only a few weeks to find a car, they turned to Lincoln since they already had been working on the Futura.  The car fit the role perfectly after a few modifications, but suffered mechanical problems so a new engine and transmission from a Ford Galaxie were added.  This car was the most recognizable Batmobile for many years.
In later Batman movies, a new Batmobile was found using cars built by General Motors and included a real jet engine.

The latest Batmobile is quite a bit different than previous versions, looking like something from the future.  It was only driven minimally for the movies Batman Begins and The Dark Knight and then 1/3 scale radio controlled Batmobiles were used for many of the driving scenes and stunts.
