A clutch control system and control method, and a vehicle including a manual transmission. The clutch control system comprises a clutch actuating mechanism, a gear-shifting intention sensor and a control unit, wherein the gear-shifting intention sensor is used for collecting a gear-shifting intention signal and delivering same to the control unit; the control unit is used for controlling an operating state of the clutch actuating mechanism; the clutch actuating mechanism is used for manipulating a clutch to engage and disengage an engine and a transmission; and the control unit is integrated on an electronic control unit of the engine. The clutch control system realizes automatic control over a clutch of a manual vehicle, and can replace a clutch pedal in the prior art, thereby alleviating the operation burden of a driver. Moreover, by directly integrating a control unit for controlling the clutch onto an electronic control unit (ECU) of an engine, the time it takes for the signal transmission of a signal bet
