Friday's attack happened as clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces erupted in various places in the occupied West Bank.
Two other people were injured in the incident, one of whom was in critical condition, according to reports.
The Jerusalem Post website said the suspected driver of the car, who had escaped from the scene, was reportedly captured by Israeli security forces and was lightly injured.
The Israeli military said on Twitter the suspect had been taken to a hospital and was being questioned.
The Jerusalem Post report quoted Hazam Kasam, a Hamas spokesperson, as saying "this attack makes it clear that the Intifada is continuing for the Palestinian people".
Elsewhere in the occupied territories, demonstrations were held to commemorate 100 days of rage since US President Donald Trump's declaration of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and announcement of the move of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
The rallies saw at least three Palestinians and two Israeli soldiers suffer injuries.
Protests have continued in the occupied Palestinian territories every Friday since Trump's Jerusalem move.
