Easy Car RIDE

How to Choose the Ideal Family Car in Japan

Choosing the right car type in Japan goes far beyond price—it depends on your daily needs, family situation, and even local road conditions. Here’s a breakdown of each category:

Easy Car Ride Tip:
“70% of our customers in Aichi switch to minivans after their second child,” notes our sales manager.

Regional Differences in Japan:

  • Tokyo/Osaka: Hatchbacks rule due to narrow streets
  • Rural areas: Sedans and minivans are more popular

At Easy Car Ride (Aichi, Shizuoka, Mie), we offer:

  • Comparative test drives of all 3 types
  • Personalized lifestyle assessments
  • Custom maintenance packages for each vehicle type

How to Decide?

  1. Count your regular passengers
  2. Measure your parking space
  3. Calculate total monthly costs (including insurance/taxes)
