Jeremy Clarkson shares 'main reason' for ending The Grand Tour in furious rant
The Grand Tour has embarked on its ultimate adrenaline-fueled adventure, tackling the challenging landscapes of Zimbabwe, where Jeremy Clarkson revealed a significant factor in the decision to halt the beloved motoring show.
During the series finale, Jeremy unleashed an impassioned outburst, exposing a crucial motive for his desire to retire the Amazon Prime Video hit.
As the last episode unfolds, viewers follow Jeremy, Richard Hammond, and James May on their exhilarating journey through Zimbabwe in their classic cars.
Richard battles with his Ford Capri 3-litre's exhaust issues, James is seen enjoying his ride in the Triumph Stag, and Jeremy relishes the Lancia Montecarlo, especially delighting in the engine's harmonious rumble.
"Some popping and banging nicely from the back," he comments while filming. "Love that sound", reports the Mirror.

However, Clarkson's sentiment takes a sharp turn when contemplating the shift towards electric vehicles.
"And all you lot growing up today with your electric cars, you're never going to hear it," he laments.
With the push towards environmentally friendly electric alternatives, Jeremy expresses concern about connecting with Prime Video's eco-aware younger demographic.
"There are lots of reasons why we're jacking this show in, but, for me, one of the main ones is I'm simply not interested in electric cars," he admits.
"They are just white goods, they're washing machines, they're microwave ovens.
"You can't review those, you can't enjoy them. They are just s**t."
Jeremy, however, isn't vanishing from our telly just yet as there's still at least one more series of Clarkson's Farm expected to drop.
Earlier in the year, the presenter expressed his delight upon finding out that sales for electric vehicles were on a decline.
Penning thoughts in his column for the Sun, he attributed the downturn to "people being carpet-bombed and brainwashed every day by lefty green organisations like the BBC.
"But it's mostly because people are waking up to the fact electric cars are expensive, boring to drive, useless for long journeys and, if we are honest, not especially good for the environment."
