Aston Martin is currently building the world's fastest car for a billionaire with an unlimited budget and it's been dubbed 'The Batmobile'

Aston Martin is reportedly hard at work on the world’s fastest car, which has been dubbed ‘The Batmobile’.

This car has it all going on – an awesome design, a cool name, and speed stats that are nothing short of eye-watering.

The Batmobile is reportedly being developed for a billionaire who is believed to have spent millions on it already.

One thing is for sure; there’ll be a lot of jealous people when he finally gives this car its big debut.

There are already a fair few one-off commissions out there

One-off commissions are nothing in the world of cars.

We’ve seen them from Bugatti, from Rolls-Royce, and even from Pagani.

These cars are all wildly different in terms of specifications and looks, but there’s one common thread that unites them – pure star quality.

The Batmobile, the one-off project of Aston Martin, is no different.

You may recall that sightings of this car caused a huge buzz a few months ago.

When video footage of a mysterious car being tested on a track hit the internet, it caused a lot of speculation.

In the end, it was a German publication that shed some light on the car.

What do we know about this Aston Martin?

German car website Auto Motor und Sport was the publication that cracked the case of this intriguing car.

The site reported that billionaire Ken Griffin was the man who had commissioned the car.

Griffin is the founder of Citadel LLC, a multinational hedge fund, and he has an estimated net worth of $51.2 billion.

Just to put things in a wider context, this places him comfortably as the 34th richest person in the world.

Not too shabby at all.

It was apparently his request for the car to be the fastest in the world, which is quite the order.

Reports suggested that the Batmobile is 10 seconds faster than the current generation of F1 cars.

You don’t need to know a ton about F1 to acknowledge that’s no mean feat.

As of yet, the car hasn’t made its official debut, but there’s been rife speculation online about the various qualities of the car.

It’s believed to have a 1200hp V12 engine powering it, and is anticipated to cost Griffin around $15 million.

The top speed could be as fast as 250mph, which remains to be seen.

While official details are a little scant now, that builds the anticipation all the more, right?

When it comes to cool cars, you don’t get much better than the Batmobile

We can see why the Batmobile nickname has stuck with the car; the resemblance is uncanny.

But it’s certainly does no harm to Aston Martin’s rep, because let’s face it – the Batmobile is supremely cool.

Whether you’re Neymar Jr. or a British man with a Bentley Continental GP and a dream, anyone can appreciate the aura of Batman’s ride.
