Production
In July 2016, it was announced that Top Gear presenter Chris Harris would be broadcast on BBC America, starting on July 11, 2016. The show features the same title as Harris' YouTube channel. BBC America have also used the same title card from the Chris Harris on Cars YouTube channel. In September 2016, Harris announced that the show had gone on hiatus, in order for him to concentrate on filming Top Gear; but due to declining ratings, it is reckoned that a second season is unlikely. However, there is not confirmation from the BBC.
Broadcast
The show is broadcast internationally on BBC Brit in countries such as: Australia, South America, South Africa, Poland and Scandinavia. It will not be aired in the United Kingdom.
Reception
Chris Harris on Cars is competing against Harris' other new show Chris Harris Drives, which airs on the official Top Gear website. He has since "said goodbye" to his Chris Harris on Cars YouTube channel, as he is "really busy" with his new shows.
