Sort of car for which to find a road? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

getaway

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sort of car for which' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'find a road?' is the wordplay.
'find' becomes 'get' (synonyms).
'road?' becomes 'way' (road is a kind of way).
'get'+'a'+'way'='GETAWAY'

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for getaway that I've seen before include "flight" , "Escape" .)
