Electric Car Pioneer Leaves U.S. Electricar: Gary Starr, founder of the Santa Rosa, Calif.-based electric car company that became U.S. Electricar Inc., has resigned from the company and its board, though he will remain as a consultant. The small but growing company, which converts gasoline-powered vehicles to run on electric batteries, recently announced an agreement with Itochu Corp., formerly known as C. Itoh & Co., to sell the first U.S. electric cars in Japan.
