A popular trend at car shows and launch events is to show a cutaway, revealing the intricate details and mechanics of these beautiful machines. By stripping away parts of the exterior and coverings, viewers can get up close to appreciate the sophistication and engineering of today’s automobile.

Some of the examples below show cars literally cut in half (like the F1 Sauber), while others just show various cutaways and cross-sections of the vehicle. Okay enough talking, onwards to the awesome gallery below!
