Well, it’s not quite a Batmobile, but CNN has reported that police may soon get a new set of wheels that would make Bruce Wayne envious.
(And he would then embezzle said technology from his company. Holy white collar crime, Batman!)
In all seriousness, the Carbon E7 from Carbon Motors Corp. features a 300-horsepower clean diesel engine, an onboard computer with voice command, and — wait for it — integrated shotgun mounts. There’s apparently also weapons of mass destruction detectors that are optional. For real.
The only catch? The cars cost about $50,000 each. But they are supposed to last 250,000 miles, or over twice as long as a standard police cruiser. And more importantly, they have specially designed seats that allow them to easily clean up if a suspect relieves himself inside the cruiser. But can they jump across buildings? This is why Batman wins.
