The return of The Grand Tour is now just a matter of weeks away after Amazon Prime Video confirmed the series’ return and revealed a new title.
Eurocrash, which will be a standalone special episode according to reports, will be the first new episode in almost a year.
It will also be the first episode of The Grand Tour to be released since Jeremy Clarkson’s vile column about Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex.
The news comes after Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May reunited by hanging out on a boat amid speculation that they were filming the next instalment to the motor enthusiast show.
After three seasons of The Grand Tour, each containing more than 10 episodes, were released between 2016 and 2019, production on the show was affected by Covid.
Since 2020, the show has changed its format to prioritise feature-length episodes, each of which are released months apart with breaks in between.

The most recent, The Grand Tour Presents A Scandi Flick, was unveiled in September 2022 and saw the trio visit Sweden, Norway, and Finland.
This time, Eurocrash will see them embark on a 1,400-mile journey across central and eastern Europe, stopping off in Slovenia, Hungary, and Slovakia.
According to sources, Eurocrash, which is reported to be two hours in length, will feature ‘Soviet-style Formula 1’ and an attack on the main cast by archers.

The show also promises an appearance from a ‘famous racing driver’ and teases that the episode will end with a ‘Fast and Furious-style climax’.
Speaking to The Sun, a source said: ‘Nobody thought central Europe would be an option for a road trip but the lads have proven it’s a great destination.’
The next episode, which has no official release date yet, will see Jeremy, Richard, and James journey to Mauritiana on the north-west coast of Africa.

Last month, Jeremy confessed to losing sleep after having to give up some of the animals housed on his Chipping Norton farm and shop Diddly Squat.
In his Times Column, he wrote: ‘I can never sleep properly the night before they go. All the way to the slaughterhouse I have a hot cricket ball in my stomach.’
The Grand Tour is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
