"Jump in My Car" is a single released by David Hasselhoff in 2006. The song was written by Australian singer, Ted Mulry and was first a hit for the band, Ted Mulry Gang, in Australia in 1975. David Hasselhoff's version was released in Australia ahead of his first tour there, and was released on iTunes UK on October 2, 2006. On October 8, 2006 the song debuted at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart.
It received publicity from the "Get Hasselhoff to Number 1" campaign which originally campaigned to get "Looking for Freedom" released but has since switched its attentions to "Jump in My Car". The song also received backing from BBC Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills and The Sun newspaper.
The 1983 Pontiac Trans Am in the clip has been modified to look like KITT from Knight Rider. Most notably, due to being in Australia, the car was right hand drive.
The video was filmed in Glebe in Sydney, Australia.
