A drive unit comprises a motor with a motor casing, a gear box with a gear box casing, and a pulled-type clutch for torque transmission between the motor and the gear box. The gear box casing is to be fixed to the motor casing. The clutch comprises a clutch release system for transmitting a clutch release force from an actuating pedal to a diaphragm spring of the clutch. In this clutch release system there is provided a snap connection which is closed by approaching the motor casing and the gear box casing towards the relative operative position.
