Free MG Coloring Pages: 15 printable PDF designs spanning the British automaker’s history, from classic roadsters to modern SUVs and electric models. Every page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser, with no account required.

MG was founded in 1924 in Oxford, England, as an offshoot of Morris Garages, a car dealership owned by William Morris. General manager Cecil Kimber began modifying standard Morris cars into sportier versions, and the brand’s name, MG, comes directly from those two words, Morris Garages. After decades under British ownership through Morris Motors, the British Motor Corporation, and later British Leyland and Rover Group, MG passed to China’s Nanjing Automobile in 2005, which merged with SAIC Motor in 2007. Today, MG is headquartered in London and focuses heavily on SUVs and electric vehicles, a significant shift from its roots as a maker of lightweight sports roadsters.

With 15 pages ranging from 1950s roadsters to a Group B rally car and today’s electric hatchbacks, the set works well as a rough tour of MG’s century-long history.

What Is Inside This Collection

The 15 pages are grouped by era and body style, from classic roadsters through modern SUVs and electric models.

Classic and Vintage Models

Five pages cover MG’s earlier decades, including the MGA Roadster from 1955, the TF and TF 1500, and the Midget Cabriolet, reflecting the lightweight, open-top sports cars that first built the brand’s reputation.

Modern SUVs and Crossovers

Four pages feature MG’s current SUV lineup, including the Hector, RX5, ZS, and X80, part of the brand’s shift toward family-oriented vehicles under Chinese ownership.

Modern Sedans and Electric Models

Four pages cover MG’s more recent sedans and electric vehicles, including the MG6, MG5, ZT Sedan, and the MG 4 EV, one of the brand’s newer fully electric models.

Rally and Generic Designs

The remaining two pages include the MG Metro 6R4, a Group B rally car from the 1980s, and a generic MG-badged design.

What MG Coloring Pages Do

Fine motor development. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7. The badge and grille detailing on MG’s pages call for smaller, more careful strokes than the simpler body panels elsewhere on each page.

A visual way to trace one badge across a century of change. Because this collection spans lightweight 1950s roadsters, an 1980s rally car, and modern electric SUVs, coloring the set in sequence gives a child a concrete way to notice how dramatically a car company’s lineup can shift while keeping the same name and octagonal badge.

Anxiety reduction through focus. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions. The plainer modern SUV pages give colorists a steady, lower-detail task to return to between the more intricate classic roadster pages.

Introduces a brand shaped by repeated reinvention. Since MG has changed ownership more times than most car brands, from a British dealership offshoot to a Chinese-owned electric vehicle maker, this collection offers colorists a specific, well-documented example of a company that has survived by adapting rather than staying the same.

How to Color MG Pages Well

  • Classic roadsters like the MGA and TF: British Racing Green or Crayola Red, two colors closely associated with 1950s and 1960s British sports cars.
  • The Metro 6R4: bold Crayola Red and White in a rally-inspired pattern, since Group B rally cars from this era were typically painted in high-visibility racing liveries.
  • Modern SUVs like the Hector and ZS: Crayola Silver or Deep Blue, common factory colors on MG’s current family-oriented lineup.
  • The MG 4 EV: a fresh Crayola Turquoise or bright Orange, colors often used to visually distinguish electric models from traditional gasoline cars.
  • The octagonal MG badge: Crayola Silver or Gold, kept small and precise, since it appears consistently across every era of the brand.
  • Chrome trim and grilles: a light Crayola Gray with a thin white highlight line for a reflective look without heavily shading the whole piece.
