Yes, there are experimental solar powered cars that take part in annual races. The annual Darwin to Adelaide race is well known, crossing Australia from north to south. These cars are very light, low and flat, looking rather like giant cockroaches, and only hold one (small) person, to keep down the weight.
In terms of a foreseeable production car, the technology is still not workable. The sun provides us too little energy to propel a safe and legal car any distance.
