The Grand Tour bids farewell in emotional trailer for final special
Clarkson, Hammond and May's motoring adventure comes full circle.
The Grand Tour's last ever episode, One For The Road, has dropped an emotional trailer ahead of its release on Prime Video later this month.
The feature-length special wraps up 22 years of collaboration between Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond, who first worked together on the BBC's Top Gear before jumping to Prime Video's spiritual successor.
Their last outing takes them to Zimbabwe, where they will complete "a stunning road trip through beautiful and sometimes challenging landscapes leading to an emotional ending on a strangely familiar island".
Check out the trailer for the special below, which drops on Prime Video on Friday 13th September:
The special will see Clarkson, Hammond and May navigating the country in a Lancia Montecarlo, a Ford Capri 3-litre and a Triumph Stag respectively, in a move that echoes 2007's Top Gear special in Botswana.
Clarkson explained: "The premise of the original Botswana film was: why, when you leave London and move to Surrey, do you always buy yourself a 4x4? You don’t need one.
"To prove this, we decided to drive three perfectly ordinary cars across Botswana."

He continued: "I've always liked the premise that cars are much tougher than you think they are. They can take so much punishment; people don't believe how much their car can take before it expires.
"So, we did a similar thing this time: the three that we took to Zimbabwe were, on the face of it, ridiculous, but as you can see in the film, they survive. The concept was just driving cars we liked."
The Grand Tour co-presenter Hammond has assured fans that the series will continue with different presenters, but did not have any information on who might take the wheel or what format changes they could introduce.
The Grand Tour: One For The Road, the final episode, premieres on Friday 13th September 2024. Sign up to Amazon Prime for £8.99 per month.
