Car won’t accelerate

I drove my 2002 Toyota echo on 5 gear at about 85 to 90 miles for a long distance then I notice a burn smell and when I got of the highway I try changing g gears but nothing would happen, the car accelerates very slowly without changing gears. Did I burn my clutch? Or I might having transmission problems?

Starting point would be to identify where the burning smell is coming from. Check brake pads or an oil leak onto the exhaust.

You mentioned about changing gears. Without more detail, I would be thinking about when the transmission oil was last changed and to check the oil level on both the transmission and the engine.

How old are the spark plugs; check condition of spark plugs and whether they should be replaced.
