Heyy!
Okay, I think this is what your looking for;

-RAM, Random Access Memory, Used to temporarily store files that you are using alot so that they open/load quicker.

-CPU, Central Processing Unit, The primary element for carrying out the computer's functions.

-Motherboard, Holds many of the crucial components of the system, while providing connectors for other peripherals.

-Hard disc drive/s, Features one or more rotating rigid platters on a motor-driven spindle within a metal case. Data is encoded magnetically by read/write heads that float on a cushion of air above the platters.

-Video card/s, An expansion card whose function is to generate and output images to a display. Many video cards offer added functions, such as accelerated rendering of 3D scenes and 2D graphics.

-Fan/s or cooling, Used for cooling purposes, and may refer to fans that draw cooler air into the case from the outside, expel warm air from inside. Watercooling can also be used.

-CD drive/s, Used to read and write data to CD's and DVD's.

I think it would be the same for the car, just listing the components and what they do.
Also, most of this come from Wikipedia.
Hope this helps you, and good luck!
Daniel ;)
