Almost none. The total energy hitting the surface of an automobile is minimal compared to the energy it takes to power a automobile, so no production cars are powered by solar.

Solar has been added to a very small portion of hybrids to power fans or other accessories that require very little power. The number of panels though used for this application is very small.
