A BMW in Germany has been sliced clean in half to show what’s really going on inside.
Every hidden system is visible, from the engine and wiring to the frame and suspension.
It’s not CGI or a concept render, but a real car dissected to reveal its inner workings.
And it exposes everything in detail you would usually never see.

The BMW cut in half reveals every hidden secret
A video from creator Oleksandr Sheniak shows a BMW split straight down the middle, exposing all the inner workings of the car.
The inline-6 engine sits there like a museum piece, its pistons, driveshaft, and cooling channels frozen mid-motion.
The wiring, the suspension geometry, even the crash-beam reinforcements – all visible.
It’s not a wreck.
It’s what BMW calls a Lehrschnittfahrzeug – a ‘teaching cutaway vehicle.’
These models are used in museums and engineering schools to demonstrate the brand’s internal precision.
The point isn’t destruction.
It’s clarity.
Up close, you can trace the airflow ducts that feed the engine, the welded cage beneath the cabin, the hidden airbags ready to deploy in milliseconds.

And viewers are captivated.
“It was pain to watch but beautiful to admire,” one person commented on Instagram.
That’s the paradox of Lehrschnittfahrzeug.
Seeing a BMW cut open feels wrong, but what you’re looking at is the very reason it feels right on the road.
This isn’t the only car that’s been taken apart for fun
This BMW display taps into a long-running fascination with pulling cars apart.
Sometimes for art, sometimes just for laughs.
Take the time YouTuber Ross Creations literally built a car with two fronts to sidestep a ‘no reverse parking’ rule.
He chopped and welded two vehicles together just to prove a point, and somehow, it worked.
Then there’s the upside-down Camaro racecar.
A flipped-over muscle car created by a US police officer for the 24 Hours of LeMons.
Both projects turned ordinary vehicles into bizarre experiments, cutting, inverting, and rebuilding them purely for the thrill of the idea.
Together they show how far people will go to reimagine what a car can be, whether it’s to make a joke or to make a point.
And BMW’s Lehrschnittfahrzeug proves you don’t need chaos to show genius.
Just precision.
