- Clarkson, Hammond, and May ended their 22-year partnership in 2024, citing physical demands, age, and a lack of interest in electric cars after their previous work on the BBC motoring show Top Gear.

- The new series arrives on Prime Video on September 4, featuring incoming presenter Bourgeois, who is a trained mechanical engineer and internet personality known for viral trainspotting videos.
- Addressing the show's format, Wilman explained that "when those three go away, you can't parachute in three new, good presenters who are funny," emphasizing the chemistry required: "you just need three funny blokes and they muck about.
