Tenses is an "early career" Batman story, with Bruce struggling to find a compromise between Batman and Bruce Wayne. During particularly a busy night in Gotham, this Batmobile is seen over the course of two pages as Batman finishes one rescue and prepares to intercept a department store robbery. The design leans much more towards "science fiction" than most other Batmobiles, outside of those found in Elseworld's stories. Even the Norm Breyfogle Batmobiles of the 1990s (arguably some of the most futuristic Batmobiles ever) had more of a "sleek car" design than a "sci-fi movie" design. Lacking fins or a mask, the only bat-inspired design element found on this car is the windshield, which is framed to create a silhouette of a resting bat. Though few of its abilities are shown (a jet engine and built-in Police scanner are the only features directly mentioned), it does garner one compliment: a young man Batman rescues stops him just before he leaves to tell him, "cool car."
