Origin
Batman's first car was a simple red sedan modeled after the automobiles of the late 1930's and early 1940's.

A later "Batmobile" design was introduced by writer Garner Fox.

The vehicle has been modified for the comics and other media with each decade to reflect the automotive style of the era.
