“Life Is a Highway” is a song written by Tom Cochrane and performed by him as part of his album “Mad Mad World” released in 1991.

The song appears in the film during a montage sequence featuring the main character Lightning McQueen traveling across the United States, and it also plays over the end credits.
The Rascal Flatts version of “Life Is a Highway” was a major commercial success, reaching No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and earning the group a Grammy Award nomination for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
