I think you're also forgetting the other aspect that allows this which is having readily available public transport.

Most of Japan doesn't have excellent public transport.

Car ownership is less common in most of the places in Japan with excellent public transport.

But I do like that each car legally requires its own parking spot. It is tricky to go to people's homes, because often extra parking is extremely limited or non-existent. It requires specific planning.
