What is the purpose of a clutch assembly in an automobile?
What will be an ideal response?
Engagement of the clutch allows for power transfer from the engine to the transmission and eventually to the drive wheels. Disengagement of the clutch provides the necessary halt of power transfer that allows the engine to continue running while no power is supplied to the drive wheels. Engagement and disengagement of the clutch in most vehicles is controlled by a pedal and clutch linkage. Many newer vehicles dispose of the pedal and linkage in favor of an electronically controlled release mechanism.
