Amazon will continue producing “The Grand Tour“, but with new hosts, as the current ones, Richard Hammond, James May, and Jeremy Clarkson, are leaving the show.

The episode marking the hosts’ final farewell will air on Amazon Prime on September 13, signaling the end of the current phase of the show.

Hammond confirmed in a statement to Metro that instead of ending, the series will have new hosts for the next season. He also expressed excitement about watching the show with new faces and highlighted that future hosts will need to be passionate about the show’s theme, just as they were.

“‘The Grand Tour’ continues. We are stepping away as hosts, but Prime will carry on with it. So I can’t wait to sit in my own chair and watch someone else do it. […] The hosts […] need to have that passion in their hearts. We always did. You never needed to be a car geek to watch our show. Many people who weren’t watched, but it was important that we were the car geeks.”

Currently, it is unknown who will replace Hammond, Clarkson, and May, or how the show’s format will change. Hammond mentioned that the decision regarding the future of the show is out of their hands, but he and his colleagues will be available to help if needed.

The series will continue, and the new hosts will be tasked with carrying on the important legacy of “The Grand Tour” for fans.
