Abstract
To provide a power transmission system for a vehicle wherein a starter is simplified, the number of component parts is small, and a reduction in cost can be contrived. Thus, an excellent operationality at the time of starting is achieved. A power transmission system for a vehicle, including a clutch and a fluid transmission through both of which the rotational torque of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine is transmitted to a load-side transmission mechanism, wherein the clutch and the fluid transmission are both provided on one side of the crankshaft, and a drive force of a starter is directly inputted to the other side of the crankshaft.
