Get ready to rev your engines—The Grand Tour is officially returning for a brand new season, and the keys to television’s biggest motoring show have been handed to a fresh trio of hosts.
Prime Video has confirmed that the hit series will roar back onto screens globally on September 4, 2026, kicking off a new era for the flagship franchise.
Following the departure of long-time hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May—who wrapped up their historic 21-year partnership on screen with their final Zimbabwean special The Grand Tour: One For The Road—fans wondered whether the iconic format would continue. Prime Video’s latest announcement officially confirms the series is steering in an exciting new direction with a talented, highly passionate new team behind the wheel.
Meet the New Presenters
Taking over the driver’s seats are three faces well-known to car enthusiasts and digital audiences worldwide:
- Francis Bourgeois: Celebrated trainspotter, viral content creator, and secret petrolhead. Known for his infectious enthusiasm and love for engineering, Bourgeois steps into the world of high-octane motoring to bring his unique brand of joy to four wheels.
- James Engelsman & Thomas Holland: The acclaimed duo and creators behind the YouTube phenomenon Throttle House. Known for their cinematic driving reviews, sharp comedic timing, and deep automotive expertise, Engelsman and Holland bring a wealth of motoring knowledge and brilliant on-screen banter to the team.
Together, the trio will continue the show’s tradition of tackling motoring’s most pressing—and delightfully absurd—questions across some of the world’s most challenging terrains.
It comes as original presenters – former Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May stepped back from the series.
Epic Road Trips and Global Adventures
The upcoming season promises all the scale, ambition, and cinematic visuals that fans of The Grand Tour have come to expect, combining chaotic challenges with breathtaking global destinations.
In the upcoming season, viewers can look forward to:
- Angola: The trio attempts to cross the treacherous Angolan desert in wildly unsuitable track cars.
- Malaysia: A deep dive into Malaysia’s vibrant, high-energy car culture and unique custom builds.
- California: Testing cutting-edge performance cars and hypercars along iconic American highways and race circuits.
From grueling endurance trips to high-speed track tests, Francis, James, and Thomas are set to push both themselves and their vehicles to the absolute limit.
