At least japan is walkable and has high speed rail so for many owning a car can be optional.

The big cities are walkable / have good transport, but the countryside is inaccessible without a car for the most part.

I don't know Japan at all, but might there be more space for parking at residences in the countryside?

Good point, in the countryside there's not as much apartment living so it would probably be easier to install a charging station.
