Season 13 premiers on January 25th, Monday at 8pm. Season 14 will be airing immediately after Season 13, premiering on Monday, March 15.
Season 12 of Top Gear was number 6 on the 2009 best-selling TV (Seasons) listing for iTunes. Full episodes of Season 13 will be posted on iTunes 24 hours after its U.S. premiere on BBC AMERICA, every Tuesday throughout this season. Now you can watch the terrific trio anytime, anywhere. Also BBCAmerica.com has released a new TopGear Soundboard online, featuring some of the best TopGear sound bites. Part factual and part entertainment, the award winning car show has become a global phenomenon reaching 150 million homes worldwide.
What to expect from the 13th installment of the world’s most popular auto entertainment show?
The terrific trio undoubtedly has a brand new arsenal of automotive mayhem waiting for us in the new series. In the premiere episode, Jeremy Clarkson takes the Lotus Evora for a spin around the track, and then the hosts go on the Top Gear Race to the North, a three way race from London to Edinburgh with James riding in a Jaguar XK120 and Hammond on a Vincent Black Shadow motorbike and Jeremy riding in the cab of the steam locomotive No. 60163 Tornado. Later James and Richard race a stamped letter sent by the Royal Mail across the British Isles and Abu Dhabi in a Porsche Panamera.
The trio then buys three £1,500 rear-wheel-drive sports cars and enter in a terrifying French ice race. Richard tests the new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640-4 SV in Abu Dhabi and stages the world’s first race between the 1001hp Bugatti Veyron, McLaren F1 and the Lambo Murcielago SV.
The show continues to put the rich and famous through the Top Gear test track in the continuing hit original segment “Star in a Reasonably Priced Car”. Getting behind the wheel in this season are car enthusiast and talk show host Jay Leno, film actress Sienna Miller, King of Twitter Stephen Fry, Olympic Gold sprinter Usain Bolt and AC/DC singer Brian Johnson.
Well here’s the kicker…. This is the season where Top Gear’s quiet and mysterious racing driver Stig takes off his helmet to reveal who he truly is – a television first!! In short Season 13 is going to be nothing short of an innovative and enjoyable experience for all.
