Luv’s Spinner, 2049. Originally conceived by Syd Mead, Spinners of various types have been used in both Blade Runner films. Spinners aren’t common possessions. Prohibitively expensive, they’re mainly used by government officials, law enforcement, as emergency vehicles and the wealthy. This particular Spinner belongs to Luv (Sylvia Hoeks), a bodyguard for the world’s richest and most powerful person, Niander Wallace (Jared Leto). Luv is a replicant whose status and perfectionism are reflected in her vehicle, which director Denis Villeneuve describes as “the Ferrari of Spinners”.
