Cars are strangely enough one of the only energy usages we have right now that is not dependent on base load power. Inherently they must carry the energy they need with them, and therefore can store it from any time of day. So it'd be fine to supply them entirely with intermittent, variable sources like wind and solar, given sufficient total wattage.
