Wait, there's no motor in a tank? I've never really thought about how they work, but that doesn't seem right.

Motorized infantry means infantry transported by light vehicle like trucks and hmmwv. Mechanized infantry means infantry transported by armored vehicles like APCs and IFVs. Light infantry means infantry that will hoof it and while they can usually have trucks and the like they don’t need them to do their jobs.
