"Getaway Car" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her sixth studio album, Reputation (2017). It served as a single in Australia and New Zealand on September 7, 2018, to support the Australian shows of Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour (2018). Written and produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff, it is a synth-pop song with pulsing synthesizers, programmed drums, and distorted vocals. Lyrically, the song describes Swift's efforts to exit a relationship using romance with someone else, knowing the new relationship will also end briefly because its purpose was only to "get away" from the first one.

Contemporary critics lauded the song's production and intricate lyrics filled with imagery and references to popular culture staples, such as the Bonnie and Clyde criminal couple. Some critics identified the track as a highlight of Reputation, and has been a common fan favorite in Swift's discography. "Getaway Car" received a platinum certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and a gold certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).
