The surviving members of the Cars are reportedly working on a new album, using studio recordings left behind by frontman Ric Ocasek , who died in 2019 .

The news comes from Bill Janovitz's comprehensive new book The Cars: Let the Stories Be Told , which features contributions from all three surviving members of the band - guitarist Elliot Easton, drummer David Robinson and keyboardist Greg Hawkes. (Bassist and singer Benjamin Orr died in 2000.)

In the final chapter, Janovitz reveals that a few years ago Hawkes was sent over two dozen tracks which had been collected by a close associate of Ocasek's. A song named "I Just Can't Stay" features both Orr and Ocasek on vocals, and dates back to their pre-Cars time together.
