In a car engine, the chemical energy stored in the gasoline is converted to thermal energy through combustion. The thermal energy is then converted to mechanical energy as the pistons move and drive the vehicle. Finally, the mechanical energy is transferred to the wheels to propel the car forward.
Mechanical
A common example of conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy is in a car engine where the combustion of fuel releases energy that is then converted into mechanical energy to move the vehicle.

Yes, the energy transformations in a car engine involve multiple steps. The chemical energy stored in the fuel is converted to thermal energy through combustion, which then powers the engine's mechanical motion through the movement of pistons. This mechanical energy is then converted to kinetic energy to move the vehicle.
thermal energy.
When a car is driven, the chemical energy in gasoline is converted into mechanical energy by the engine. The combustion of gasoline in the engine produces heat, which is then converted into kinetic energy that propels the vehicle forward.
Chemical energy is being converted to thermal energy which is then converted to mechanical energy and finally to kinetic energy which moves the car. Kinetic energy is then converted to thermal energy in the brakes to stop the car.

Most of the mechanical (or kinetic) energy is converted to heat.
Chemical energy (stored in the bonds of the molecules). When it burns, a lot of that energy becomes heat and a lot of that heat gets converted to internal energy as the hot combusted gas products reach high pressure with increasing temperature. The pressure pushes the pistons (kinetic energy) which translates to mechanical energy, which moves the car - which has kinetic energy as it moves.
The type of energy that is in a car is mechanical energy, chemical energy (because it consumes petrol), and sound energy.
