A powered truck bed tonneau cover includes a handle operating a clutch to engage and disengage an electric motor from the tonneau cover. The handle is operable whenever the tonneau cover is open. A Hall sensor measures the position of the cover and a user may select closed and open positions for powered operation. A drive assembly of the powered truck bed tonneau cover resides just behind the cab and urges the cover into a spiral to avoid binding.
