It looks like the company may have a hit on its hands.

With just six weeks to go before its debut on Amazon Prime, we've gotten our first proper look at the new car-centric TV series The Grand Tour. Last night, a trailer featuring Messers Clarkson, May, and Hammond hit YouTube, giving us a preview of what to expect when the first episode arrives on November 18th.

The trio decamped to Amazon following Clarkson's sacking by the BBC after the Top Gear star's bad behavior became too much to excuse. But the Beeb's loss is Amazon's gain if the trailer is anything to go by. Or, as my colleague Lee Hutchinson put it, "Just like how Kirk, Spock, and McCoy were the main magic of Star Trek, the main magic of Top Gear was its three hosts."

The show's name should give you a clue to the format—it's a series of around-the-world adventures in some very cool cars, with plenty of banter and ribaldry along the way.

Back at the BBC, we've heard that Chris Harris and Rory Reid will both be given much more to do in the next series of Top Gear, along with Matt LeBlanc. Chris Evans—who was not a hit with viewers—stepped down following the conclusion of this year's series, shouldering the blame for a precipitous drop in ratings.

To watch The Grand Tour, you'll need Amazon Prime and a bit of patience; unlike Netflix's original bingeable content, Amazon will drip-feed us episodes at the rate of one a week. Still, it should be worth the wait.
