Top Cars for Camp Zama Roads (Recommended by Direct Cars)

1. Toyota Vitz (Yaris) One of Japan’s most beloved compact cars. Easy to park, fun to drive, and highly fuel efficient. Great for solo drivers or couples commuting to base or doing daily runs around Kanagawa.

2. Honda Fit Hybrid An eco-friendly and budget-smart choice. The Fit offers great mileage, tons of cargo space with fold-flat seats, and smooth handling — even on the winding back roads around Zama.

3. Suzuki Jimny For those who want a little more adventure, the Jimny is compact yet rugged. Its 4WD capabilities make it perfect for exploring the mountainous areas around Kanagawa or venturing up to Yamanashi or Hakone.

4. Toyota Noah or Honda Stepwgn For families stationed at Camp Zama, a van like the Noah or Stepwgn provides roomy interiors, sliding doors (a parking lot lifesaver), and plenty of space for weekend trips or PCS-related hauls.

5. Subaru Impreza or Forester These are perfect if you're looking for AWD stability, especially during the colder months or if you're planning road trips. Subarus are known for their solid build and performance across diverse terrain.
