How to connect a computer with something like a little electric car?

Question

I am a complete beginner and I wondered how to hardware like a controller with a f.e. little electric car. So when I want to program a controller like a ps4 controller so that it can let a little electric car drive, how can I do that? (programming language in best case Python)

The Raspberry Pi is a popular single-board computer that can be programmed to achieve this. Somebody actually already built one full-sized electric car, called the Teslonda.

If you want to go smaller than the Raspberry Pi Zero, you can try programming an Arduino (but this involves C instead of Python).

Both the Raspberry Pi and Arduino has their own Stack Exchange sites. You might get a better response there than here.
