In Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy, Bruce Wayne’s rides were all Lamborghinis—specifically, I believe, a Murciélago Roadster, a Murciélago LP640, and an Aventador LP700-4. Now, if the Lamborghini Urus had launched earlier, he probably would’ve had that too. Hell, looking at how the independent automaker Rezvani has based its Knight SUV on the Urus, Bruce could’ve been rolling in one as his Batmobile instead.
Billed as an “exclusive designer SUV with supercar performance,” the Rezvani Knight packs a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 that cranks out up to 800 horsepower, delivered to all four wheels. That’s enough to launch this beast from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in just 3.0 seconds. While the Dark Knight might prefer a ride that seats only one (or maybe two—you know, because Catwoman), the Knight lets you blast down the highway in luxury with seating for four or five. The seats are customizable too, with five Rezvani seat patterns and a rainbow of color options to choose from.
Now, if you’re seriously considering turning this into your crime-fighting ride (not that we’re encouraging vigilante behavior, btw), you’ll be glad to know there’s an optional bulletproof package. It includes bullet-resistant glass, armored body panels, and underside explosive protection. We’re not entirely sure if that’s the same as the military package, though. That one goes full-blown Tumbler.
In addition to everything above, the military package adds a smoke screen system, military-grade run-flat tires, thermal night vision, reinforced suspension, EMP protection, ram bumpers, optional explosive detection, electrified door handles—the works. So yes, it’s basically the Urus version of the Tumbler.
Now, for the good news for all the real-life Bruce Waynes out there (in terms of wealth, not vigilante urges): the Rezvani Knight is real and available to buy. It’s limited to just 100 units, each starting at US$149,000—not including the cost of the donor Urus. So, Waynes of the world, time to go SUV shopping.
