    The machine does the processing and the engine makes the machine run. 

    An engine PRODUCES power, a machine or motor USES power from and independent source


    I. E. An automobile ENGINE uses a FUEL to motivate the vehicle.


    An electric vehicle uses ELECTRICITY from a battery via a motor to motivate the vehicle

    An motor is a machine that uses electricity to power it.
