Matt Reeves made DC fans debate when he revealed his vision of the Batmobile for “The Batman,” a design that is more realistic than the style in comics or animations. The engine appears to have received some major updates, with red lights illuminating the additions, but that’s not all.
A fan was able to identify what appears to be a bat design if you look at the car from a certain angle. @grumpyandgeeky outlined the shape around the back mechanical portion to show what he was talking about, and it is evident that there is something there, as confirmed by the conceptual artist who designed the new Batmobile, Ash Thorpe.
First, the internet user posted the image with the drawn bat and wrote:
“So! Just been staring at the back of the new Batmobile from new Batman movie & saw this within the engine design. I outlined it….BUT I can see the Batman emblem within. (outlined). Coincidence or part of the design?!”

It turned out that it was not a coincidence, as Thorpe confirmed that it was very intentional. He replied: “yeah its there and in another view of the batmobile. That was intended :).”
