The energy in a car starts as electrical energy in the battery. That energy creates thermal energy in the form of a spark, which activates chemical energy in the fuel. The chemical energy converts to thermal energy which is then transformed to the mechanical energy which moves the car.

Kinetic energy in the car's forward speed is converted to heat energy which heats up the brakes and is dissipated into the air.

In Dynamic Braking, the kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy in a battery. It can then be used to drive the vehicle forward, saving fuel.
