This sounds like one of those things that was intentionally produced suboptimally for the first go-round so they could “improve” it later.
1998 is well past the bubble era in Japan. This car was first unveiled in concept form in 1993, which itself is after the bubble burst.
Many other countries already do this, so if you have a problem with this you should probably avoid international travel altogether.
