Just one day after the Bat Signal lit up the General Motors Renaissance Center, Chevrolet unveiled the LEGO Batmobile at the 2017 North American International Auto Show.

The vehicle comes in at 17-feet long and has exclusive stud shooters. It was inspired by Batman's Speedwagon which is featured in the 'LEGO Batman Movie' coming out next month.

Some facts about the LEGO Batmobile include it weighing 1,695.5 pounds and 344,187 bricks to build it. It took 222 hours to design and 1,833 hours to build at the LEGO Model Shop in Enfield, Conn.

“To work on the LEGO® Batmobile with Warner Bros. is an absolute thrill for us at Chevy,” said Paul Edwards, U.S. vice president of Chevrolet marketing. “Many of the themes in ‘The LEGO® Batman Movie,’ like imagination, family and community, align perfectly with our Chevy brand values and add to the value of the partnership.”
