Possibilities include water propulsion (jet, mhd, and propeller driven), air propulsion (propeller, turboprop, turbojet, ramjet, scramjet, and rockets), ground propulsion (virtually all of the above for various vehicles).

For air propulsion, the most common types are propeller, turboprop, turbojet?, ramjet, scramjet?, and rocket propulsion.

For ground propulsion, virtually all of the above have been used at one time or another.

For these and other types of transportation, see transport.
