The Dark Knight looks set to take centre stage at this year’s Gumball 3000 rally with one race team unveiling an exact replica of Batman’s famous Tumbler car.

International racing crew Team Galag will stand out from the crowd in their version of the sleek jet black supercar driven by Batman in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy.

Commissioned by Florida-based Parker Brothers Concepts, the team have reportedly invested over $1.5 million to create the impressive Batmobile racer.

Boasting a powerful 400hp 6.2-liter V8 engine, the 2.5 tonne cross between a Lamborghini and a tank can reach speeds topping 100mph.

The tank-like vehicle will be showcased in London later this month before heading for the Gumball starting line in Copenhagen on May 18.
