Solar Panels on cars would not work very well because the panels need to take up alot of space to charge a car's batteries in a reasonable time. If roads were solar, the energy they capture could charge cars while they drive on it via Induction.
The technology has been around for a long time but its getting cheap enough to do more and more things with.
