Can the car still be driven if the clutch plate is burnt?

If the clutch plate is burnt, the car cannot be driven. The clutch plate is a composite material primarily functioning through friction while also meeting structural performance requirements. The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmissions, allowing the drivetrain to be disconnected or engaged at any time.
