Are all autonomous vehicles (self driving cars) electric vehicles (EV) or some are also internal combustion engines (ICE)?

I was having a discussion with my friend and he was insisting that all artificial intelligence based cars are EV but I don't agree with him as I think artificial intelligence (self driving) is being applied to the navigation aspects of the car, not to other aspects of the vehicle like the propulsion system that can be EV or ICE.

    $\begingroup$ You are confusing AI with self driving cars, and since the levels of driver assistance can be misidentified as self driving the answer appears to be yes, my car has lane keeping and automatic cruise control and uses dinosaur juice. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 17 at 21:33
