They have made solar cars, but not for the public to use. If you want a new source for transportation, try looking at hydro-cars. (water powered cars)
Solar energy uses the photoelectric effect to convert light energy into electrical energy. When sunlight shines on a solar panel, the photoelectric effect causes electrons to be released, creating an electric current.
A solar panel is a device that converts solar energy from the sun into electricity through the photovoltaic effect.

Solar energy was discovered in the 19th century when photovoltaic effect was first observed. In 1839, Alexandre Edmond Becquerel discovered the photovoltaic effect, which laid the foundation for the development of solar panels to harness solar energy. Since then, advancements in technology have made solar energy a viable and sustainable source of power.

A solar panel, also known as a photovoltaic panel, converts solar energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect where sunlight is converted into electricity using semiconductor materials.
As of February 2015, solar vehicles are not sold as practical day-to-day transportation devices. They are powered almost entirely by solar energy. They convert the sun's energy into electric energy and use it to power the vehicle.
A solar panel is a device that absorbs the Sun's radiant energy and converts it into electricity through a photoelectric effect.

No, solar energy and solar cells are not the same, although sometimes people do use the phrases as though they were interchangable. Solar energy is energy that is transferred from the sun to the earth. Solar cells are devices that turn energy from the sun into photovoltaic energy that we can use.
In solar cells, the transformation of energy involves converting sunlight (solar energy) into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. When sunlight hits the solar panel, it excites the electrons in the semiconductor material, creating an electric current that can be used as electricity.
