A motor vehicle drive system is provided wherein a steam engine and electric drive motor provide propel the vehicle through cooperating clutch controls. Steam to supply the steam engine is created by applying high frequency energy to liquid water until it is transformed into steam. The electrical power for the application of high frequency energy is supplied from a single direct current power source, a battery. The steam engine output shaft is mechanically linked to an alternator that recharges the battery through a voltage regulator.
