Prime Video Names New Hosts for The Grand Tour Season 7

Amazon Prime Video has announced that social media influencers Thomas Holland, James Engelsman, and Francis Bourgeois will host the next season of its popular motoring series The Grand Tour, marking a significant refresh following the departure of longtime presenters Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May. The seventh season, consisting of six episodes, is slated for release in 2026 on the streaming platform.

The new hosts bring backgrounds rooted in online content creation. Holland and Engelsman run the YouTube channel Throttle House, launched in 2018, where they review cars, conduct track tests, and explore automotive adventures. The channel has amassed over 3.2 million subscribers. Bourgeois, whose real name is Luke Magnus Nicolson, gained fame through enthusiastic trainspotting videos on TikTok starting in 2021, building a following of more than 6 million across platforms. He has since expanded into interviews with celebrities like Louis Theroux and Tom Daley, and hosted the Channel 4 series Trainspotting with Francis Bourgeois. All three are notably younger than their predecessors, signaling Prime Video's aim to attract a new generation of viewers.
