It's actually dead simple: there are battery electric EVs and internal combustion cars. That's it.

ICE cars come with a variety of add-ons and schemes to improve efficiency: fuel injectors, ECUs, braking energy capture systems (aka hybrid), small batteries for short trips that no one plugs in (aka plug in hybrids), etc.

AKA container ships and locomotives, lol.
