NME.Unlike its predecessor, The Car is not a concept album. Lyrically, the album refers frequently to show business, specifically the music and film industries. [3] It makes references to fame, creativity, the passage of time and nostalgia, audience expectations, [3] espionage, [8] and disillusion. [14] The album has been described as "cinematic" [32] with Turner "assuming the meta-role of an artistically struggling movie director". [33] It has also been noted, as depicting, "a decadent world of marble staircases, moated buildings, the popping of champagne corks and aeroplane descents over the French Riviera," [14] as well as, "the tensions between art and commerce, between performance and authenticity." [16] Turner cited, In the Blink of an Eye (2005) by Walter Murch, as an inspiration, and thought it felt connected to “the process and also the feel or lyrics on [The Car].” [34] Other things Turner was reading at the time include, Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe series, [4] and the works of David Foster Wallace and George Saunders.

The album's cover artwork was revealed on the same day of the album's announcement. [36] The picture was taken by the band's drummer Matt Helders using a Leica M6 film camera [37] and shows a white Toyota Camry parked alone on the rooftop of a parking garage in Los Angeles. [38] [39] Helders was testing an old 90mm lens he had just acquired, and decided to shoot the view from his old apartment window, inspired by the work of photographer William Eggleston. A series of pictures were taken and later shared with lead singer Alex Turner, who was also interested in photography. Turner became fixated on one shot featuring the car, and wrote a song inspired by it that would later become the title of the album.
