Can the thermoelectric element drive the model Stirling engine vehicle because the cold Stirling engine can respond to small temperature differences? please help me 🙏

If you are talking about a peltier type cooling module running on electricity, I don't see any reason why not, though the "vehicle" (model Stirling engine car?) Might have a hard time carrying the actual power source, batteries of some sort presumably.

Enough batteries to produce the 12 volts necessary to power the module could add considerable weight which the car would have to carry.
