Ultimate Rides Set for Season Two

Ultimate Rides, a co-production from Barcroft Studios, Beyond Rights and A+E Networks, has been renewed for a second season.

In the new season, the series will once again take viewers on a journey to track down some of the world’s most fascinating vehicles. Beyond Rights holds exclusive worldwide rights to seasons one and two and will distribute the show in all territories outside of the U.S.

Each episode of Ultimate Rides season two will feature incredible vehicles, passionate characters and the stories and stats behind them. Presented by Danny Koker, the series airs on FYI within the DRIVE enthusiast block.

Peter Wyles, Barcroft Studios’ director of programs, said: “We’re delighted to be making another 20-episode run of this wonderful series. With so many more phenomenal rides out there, we’re looking forward to featuring as many of them as possible. With Danny Koker, we have the perfect host, and the dream team is completed with A+E Networks and Beyond Rights. Put the pedal to the metal!”

Jordan Harman, executive Producer for FYI, said: “Season two of Ultimate Rides will deliver more of the insane, one-of-a-kind rides viewers have come to expect from this series and from DRIVE, shining a light on the backyard, home garage heroes who take enormous pride in their visions to go out and build their own ultimate vehicles. Danny Koker has been a staple of the block since its inception, and the knowledge and personality and passion he adds as host really brings the vehicles to life. The series is the perfect fit for DRIVE and FYI, and we are thrilled to be working with Barcroft Studios and Beyond Rights to give enthusiasts an entirely new season to feed their passion for all things automotive.”

Nicola Davey, Beyond Rights’ senior VP of acquisitions and co-productions, said: “We are excited to invest in and be part of the team greenlighting a second season of Ultimate Rides. The first season continues to be successful internationally, meeting ongoing demand for energetic and highly absorbing auto-themed content. This second season will only reinforce that, while adding vital volume for buyers.”
