I often read that people in Japan often have emotional attachment to gadgets and robots.

But I cannot recall something about cars. Do you know if emotional attachment to cars is a thing in Janan?

    Owning a car in Tokyo is a pain in the ass, and it has the lowest car per capita in the world.

    That said, if you jump through the hoops to get a car, it’s probably because you like the car. Nobody there owns a car just to commute because public transport is cheaper and easier.
