Amazon Prime has decided to keep The Grand Tour going even after Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May step away from their hosting duties. The show will continue with new presenters who must share the same passion for cars as the original trio.

Richard Hammond shared this surprising news while talking about the upcoming final special. He said:

"It will be carrying on. The Grand Tour continues. We're stepping away as the hosts, but Prime will be continuing it. So I can't wait to sit on my own chair and watch somebody else do it. That's amazing. If you're making any show that at its heart has a subject, whether it's cooking, dancing or cars, the hosts, the primary makers of it, have to have that passion in their heart. And we always did."

The original hosts aren't completely cutting ties with the show. They'll be available to offer advice if the new team wants it. Hammond explained:

"That's for people who are making it to decide. We'll always be on hand to talk if they want to talk to us, absolutely. But it's not for us to shape it anymore. We're stepping away. We made the show that we made. That show was what you get if you put us forward together and the brilliant team around us. But there'll be a different team doing a different show, and they'll devise the show that fits them."

As for the final episode with Clarkson, Hammond, and May, viewers can look forward to seeing the trio take on Zimbabwe. They'll be driving a Lancia Montecarlo, a Triumph Stag, and a Ford Capri in their last adventure together on the show.
