If the vehicles have internal combustion engines burning fossil fuel, then, yes, they release carbon dioxide (CO2). So any vehicles running on petrol, petroleum, gasoline, diesel, aerogas, aviation fuel, kerosene, natural gas and others, even coal fired steam engines release CO2 (from before the time of the dinosaurs).

Renewable fuels for vehicles, like ethanol, biofuel, biodiesel, biogas and others also release carbon dioxide (removed from the atmosphere when the plants grew).

Electric vehicles release no CO2, but they might be responsible for CO2 emissions if their electricity comes from fossil fuels. Electric vehicles charged with electricity from renewable sources release no carbon dioxide.
