VIDEO: Clarkson, Hammond and May debate on name for upcoming Amazon Prime car show, out in autumn

Whether you’re awaiting for the arrival of Top Gear Season 23 with its new seven-person cast, or Amazon Prime’s new car show starring former Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May, it certainly is a good time for car buffs. However, while the former may have a familiar name, the latter is still lacking of one.

Hence, Amazon has released a promotional video for the upcoming series where in the 1 minute 30 second spot, we get to see the three hosts debate on what the new shot should be called. It certainly isn’t easy given their previous employer’s world-renowned title.

Clarkson-Hammond-May-Amazon

Nonetheless, it certainly is hilarious watching the trio discuss and banter amongst themselves just like before. And with the Holy Trinity of hybrid supercars (LaFerrari, Porsche 918 Spyder and McLaren P1) set to be featured in one of the 12 one-four episodes of its first season – with the first due for an autumn release – it looks like a real treat.

So, what do you think the new Amazon Prime car show should be called? For now, the hashtag #TheStillVeryMuchUntitledClarksonHammondMayAmazonPrimeShowComingAutumn2016 includes several suggestions. Just don’t expect the word ‘gear’ to be included, due to legal reasons.

    How about… Since this is the 2nd gen top gear by Jeremy Clarkson (the other part is Fifth Gear but Jeremy wasnt in it), I suggest naming the show Gen2.
