Abstract

The application is directed to a motor vehicle lock for a door arrangement, wherein the catch may be brought into holding engagement with a lock striker, wherein the pawl may be brought into an engagement position, wherein the pawl may be deflected into a release position, wherein an actuation lever is provided for deflecting the pawl, wherein a switchable lock arrangement is in an actuation drive train between the actuation lever and the pawl, wherein the switchable lock arrangement may be brought into a functional state, wherein, with the switchable lock arrangement being in the unlocked state, an actuation movement of the actuation lever deflects the pawl and a drive train component of the actuation drive train is decoupled from the pawl for letting the actuation movement of the actuation lever run free or a drive train component is blocked for blocking an actuation movement of the actuation lever.
