Car Coloring Pages

Cars, not cartoon characters

Search for car colouring pages and most of the results are talking cars from one animated franchise. These are not those. They are vehicles a child actually sees — a fire engine, a school bus, a police car, a tow truck, an ice cream van — drawn without any studio’s characters attached, so they can be printed for a classroom or a party without a second thought.

Race car coloring pages

Racing gets three pages: a low racer with a spoiler and a blank number circle, a drift car with a big rear wing sliding past a line of traffic cones in clouds of tyre smoke, and a race day with three open-wheel racers rounding a bend below a packed grandstand while a marshal waves the chequered flag. The flag’s dark squares are drawn as thick frames with a white centre, so even the flag can be coloured. For fast cars that stay on the road there is a muscle car with twin racing stripes and a bonnet scoop, and a sleek sports coupe.

Police cars, tow trucks and the cars on your street

The police car has a light bar on the roof and a blank door badge to design yourself. Around it are the vehicles children point at from the back seat: a tow truck with a flashing beacon hauling a little car on its chain, an ice cream truck with a striped awning and a giant cone on the roof, an electric car plugged into its charging post, a camper van, and a 4x4 with a loaded roof rack climbing over rocks and through mud.

Windows and badges left blank

Every windscreen and side window on these pages is left completely white rather than filled dark, and the race car’s number circle and the police car’s door badge are deliberately empty. A child can put their own number on the racer, which turns a colouring page into something they made.

Tyres drawn as rings, not blobs

Tyres are the part most sets print as solid black discs, which is a quarter of the picture gone before you start. Here every tyre is an outlined ring with a separate hub and, on the monster truck and the 4x4, individually outlined tread blocks.

The three long ones

The patterned car, the city street and the race day are drawn for adults. The street scene has a bus, a taxi, shopfronts and tall buildings packed edge to edge, and the race day’s grandstand is two tiers of cheering fans to colour one by one. Either takes an evening.
