It had to happen – sentient super-powered crime-fighting vehicles are at the heart of new superhero show Batwheels in production for the Cartoon Network and HBO Max.

Featuring “the most heroic and iconic vehicles from the DC universe,” the action-adventure comedy series follows “a team of incredible crimefighters who have banded together to oppose evil, combat crime and clean up the streets of Gotham City, working alongside Batman, Robin, Batgirl and a host of DC Super Heroes.”

“Having just been created by the Batcomputer, our heroes are essentially kids with little to no life experience,” the series synopsis states. “Led by Bam (aka the Batmobile), the Batwheels — including Bibi (Batgirl’s cycle), Red (the Redbird), Jett (the Batwing) and Buff (the Bat Truck) – must navigate the growing pains of being a newly formed super team as well as the growing pains that come with just being a kid. This relatable and aspirational series will follow the journey of this dynamic team as they thrill and entertain with their heroic adventures as well as demonstrate to kids the value of self-confidence, friendship and teamwork.”

“Batwheels is the perfect show to headline our new foray into preschool,” Tom Ascheim, President of Warner Bros. Global Kids, Young Adults and Classics, said. “I can’t wait for all the aspiring super heroes out there to meet this whole new batch of crime-fighters.”

Sam Register, President, Warner Bros. Animation and Cartoon Network Studios added: “From ‘Batman: The Animated Series to Teen Titans Go!,’ superhero storytelling has definitely been one of our superpowers here at Warner Bros. Animation. We are so excited to bring that expertise over to the preschool space and take something that all kids love, cool vehicles, and give it a turbo boost with Batman!”
