Check out the updated MG ZS' 6 lively hues

The refreshed MG ZS has launched into the Philippine market as an attractive five-seater compact crossover for folks wanting a good combination of styling and comfort. It is also packed with value because, despite its affordable price, it offers plenty of creature comforts. 

The updated ZS, however, has six different color options, and each will give the said model a different feel or “persona.” 

Having a lot of options is good, but newbie buyers might get overwhelmed. As such, here’s a handy guide on how each MG ZS color option can affect the look and feel of the model. 

St. Mortiz Blue

While not really understated nor loud, St. Moritz Blue is one of the more vibrant color options for the updated ZS. The kind of blue hue it uses is bright. As such, it evokes images of the deep bodies of water. 

 

Depending on the person, associating a car with the striking blue of oceans or rivers can make it look chilled out or relaxing. Otherwise, it can also bring out the stand-out looks of the car since it is more eye-catching when compared to subdued colors such as white or silver. 

Extreme Speed Red

Probably the loudest in the exterior color lineup for the ZS is Extreme Speed Red. As hinted at by its name, it comes in dazzling red, which makes the vehicle pop out in traffic or while parked in a lot. 

The said color also helps in contrasting the black bits of the vehicle, specifically its grille, claddings, bumper inserts, and wheels. 

To note, red is also the signature color of Morris Garages (MG). It suits the design language used by the brand’s lineup, but at the same time, many buyers are likely to pick this hue.

Electro-Optic Orange

Electro-Optic Orange is one of the three vibrant exterior color options of the ZS. It is pretty much similar in feel to the red option but with a zesty feel to it, which is reminiscent of the tropics, fruit, or the bright sun. 

The said color likewise highlights the contrasting black bits of the car's exterior to achieve a sporty look. At the same time, ZS units clad in this bright orange hue will stick out just about anywhere. That’s a good thing, considering that more car designs nowadays have become too samey. 

Moon White

Also giving a good contrast to the ZS crossover’s blacked-out pieces is Moon White. In this color, the grille practically pops out, thus emphasizing the attractiveness of the model’s new front fascia. 

Otherwise, white is a subdued color in the automotive world. It may highlight character lines, too, but expect a ZS in moon white to blend in well in traffic. 

Knife Silver

Yet another understated color option for the MG ZS is Knife Silver. It looks sleek, but remember that silver is one of the more popular exterior hues in the global market. To this end, it’ll blend in well with other vehicles in traffic. 

Silver, though, has a strong advantage in hiding minor paint imperfections and dirt. Plus, this hue has a reputation for being easy to maintain, at least according to seasoned car owners. 

Meteorite Black

Meteorite Black is the stealthiest in the ZS model’s exterior color portfolio. It thoroughly hides the car’s blacked-out exterior pieces, turning it into an unbroken shadowy shape. 

For some buyers, black gives a car a quiet, elegant feel or even a mysterious aura. The aforementioned sounds good, but darker colors such as this tend to make scratches and dirt visually obvious. 

Final thoughts

With a variety of color options to choose from, the MG ZS can cater to an equally wide variety of car buyers. From the youthful first-time car owner to folks wanting a family car or a veteran car owner who wants an alternative ride, the MG crossover can fit a multitude of wants and needs.
