How to dynamically call a generic method knowing only the string's name of a generic type parameter at runtime?

I want to insert an object into my repository but not explicitly like that at coding-time:

_repository<Car>().Add(carObject);

Instead of this, I want to push the object to the corresponding class name at runtime.

I can create the object at runtime but I can't set the class name in __repository<???>().Add(object) here.

In this exemple, if I've a string name Car (it might be other class name like Person), then how can I do the same thing using the given code written only once to be applied to any type?

The term you're looking for is "Reflection". – gunr2171 Jul 30 '21 at 15:44
@gunr2171 using reflection I can create the object in run time using reflection, that's fine, but how to set the class name in __repository??>().Add(object) ?? – Tareq Mahmud Hridoy Jul 30 '21 at 16:00
Other comments actually answer your question, but you should not do that. – Romka Jul 30 '21 at 16:07
