"Beat Acelerado" (Portuguese for "Fast Beat") is a single by Brazilian synthpop band Metrô, released in 1984 by Epic Records. Serving as a teaser-of-sorts for their debut studio album Olhar, which would come out in the following year, it was the band's first official release under the name "Metrô" (they were known as A Gota Suspensa from their foundation in 1978 until 1984) and their first of many releases under the Epic label. The song was a huge hit, and was responsible for catapulting the band into fame. A music video for it was made in the same year.

Metrô has made two re-recordings of the song during its lifespan: the first re-recording, subtitled "2nd Version", is a much shorter (only 1:11 minutes long) and slower edit of the song, and was included in Olhar. The second one was made for their 2002 album Déjà-Vu, and is a bossa nova-inflected version of the song. A remix of the song by DJ Zé Pedro was subsequently included on the 2016 re-release of Olhar as a bonus track.

Brazilian singer and TV presenter Angélica has covered the song in her , released in 1994.
