Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond have committed to three series of the show with broadcaster Amazon Prime.

The first will be broadcast in 2016, Amazon said.

Clarkson said moving to Amazon's streaming service felt "like I've climbed out of a biplane and into a spaceship".

Clarkson was fired in March after he punched a producer during an off-set altercation.

The show's two other hosts also left.

Top Gear has won a huge global following with its mix of car tips, driving stunts and jokey banter.

The BBC says the show will continue with new hosts.
