Does Japan have custom duties for imported cars? (I don't watch videos.) I'm European and in market for buying an American car. It came as surprise for me that the price of Tesla includes several thousands euros of extra import tax, compared to European manufactured cars. This feels wrong, i.e. I'm being punished as customer/citizen because no European car manufacturer make attractive alternative for Teslas.
