The final episode of The Grand Tour with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May will premiere at 1am on September 12, exclusively on Prime Video.
The feature-length road trip across Zimbabwe — with a runtime of 2 hours and 10 minutes — is the last outing from the ex-Top Gear trio, marking the end of a 22-year on-screen collaboration.
The Grand Tour: One For The Road is included with a Prime membership, which costs £8.99 per month. But there's no need to pay as it's possible to watch The Grand Tour finale — as well as every other episode of the hit motoring show — without paying a penny.
Prime Video is available across a swathe of gadgets, from Sky Stream, Sky Glass and Sky Q, Roku, Virgin TV 360, Fire TV Stick, iPhone, iPad, Android smartphones and tablets, and any web browser on Windows or Mac.
You can start streaming The Grand Tour: One For The Road free of charge today. That's because, unlike Netflix and Disney+, Amazon offers a free trial for its streaming service.
You can sign-up and receive all perks included with Amazon Prime membership for 30 days.
Cancel any time during this trial period and you'll be charged nothing, but still be able to stream everything in the Prime Video catalogue. That includes the brand-new Zimbabwe special with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May as well as other shows on Prime Video from the same creative team, like Clarkson's Farm, James May: Our Man In Japan, James May: Oh Cook!, and more.
Cancel anytime during the 30-day free trial period and you'll not be charged.

Don't worry if you've taken out an Amazon Prime trial in the past — perhaps during the Prime Day or Black Friday sale to unlock next-day delivery at no cost, or for the arrival of new episodes of Clarkson's Farm — as you aqre most likely eligible for another free trial.
Amazon refreshes eligible for its 30-day free trial roughly once per year. You can check whether your Amazon account is eligible to stream for free again here.
Earlier this year, Amazon introduced ad breaks to its Prime Video subscription — something that disgruntled viewers so much, they launched a lawsuit. It's possible to remove the ad breaks in Prime Video shows and films, but you'll need to spend an extra £2 per month.

The final episode of The Grand Tour featuring Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May will arrive on September 12. For viewers in the UK, the 2-hour special will be available to watch from 1am BST.
From that time onwards, Prime Video subscribers will be able to watch the feature-length motoring show in its entirety — pause, fast-forward, and rewind. The Grand Tour: One For The Road will be available online in a web browser on your Windows or Mac laptop or desktop PC.
Amazon has also built a number of dedicated Prime Video apps, which can be installed on a range of devices, from Sky Stream, Sky Glass and Sky Q, Roku, Virgin TV 360, Fire TV Stick, iPhone, iPad, Android smartphones and tablets, PlayStation, Xbox, and others.
A complete list of Prime Video apps can be found here.
The last-ever episode of The Grand Tour clocks-in at 2h and 10min.
That's a little under the runtime of The Grand Tour: Sand Job, which released earlier this year at a feature-length 2h 16min, but much longer than the one-off specials released in 2022 and 2023, including Eurocrash (1 h 46 min) and A Scandi Flick (1 h 39 min).
For the grand finale, The Grand Tour — a spiritual successor the blockbuster Top Gear series on the BBC — lands in Zimbabwe, where Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May and producer and long-time collaborator Andy Wilman embark on a road trip through challenging landscapes, culminating in what the official Prime Video synopsis teases as "an emotional ending on a strangely familiar island".
For the final roadtrip, the trio chose three classic cars they've always wanted to own. Clarkson, 64, selected a Lancia Montecarlo, Hammond, 54, opted for a Ford Capri 3-litre, and May, 61, picked a Triumph Stag.
The adventure takes them from Zimbabwe into Botswana, facing "brutally rough terrain" and "mechanically misbehaving cars". Their route concludes at Kubu Island, which Clarkson described as "just about the most astonishing place I've ever been".
This final trip echoes theirTop Gear special in Botswana, which first aired in 2007, bringing their journey full circle. The trio faced numerous challenges during their final adventure. Despite the difficulties, Clarkson remarked, "Zimbabwe. We really did save the best 'til last."

Despite the end of their collaboration, the trio hinted at potential future projects together. Hammond told The Evening Standard, "We'll carry on doing stuff and we'll keep in touch, and who knows?"
The Grand Tour will continue without Clarkson, Hammond, and May at the helm. Hammond confirmed this, telling The Metro: "It will be carrying on. The Grand Tour continues. We're stepping away as the hosts, but Prime will be continuing it."
The trio's individual career paths are diverging. Clarkson will focus on his hit docu-series Clarkson's Farm and has recently opened The Farmer's Dog pub in the Cotswolds. May is part-owner of The Royal Oak pub in Wiltshire and presents travel documentaries for Amazon Prime. Hammond has been working on Richard Hammond's Workshop for Discovery+ and hosts a podcast called Who We Are Now.
