The Honda Civic, first introduced in 1972, is one of the most popular and enduring Japanese cars of all time, with over 18 million units sold worldwide.

The Japanese government has implemented various policies and incentives to promote the development and adoption of eco-friendly vehicles, such as tax breaks and subsidies.

The compact disc (CD) was co-invented by Philips and Sony in the 1980s and has since replaced vinyl records as the primary means of music storage.
