But, I’m not sure! If you find out that they do allow reservations and multi-day rentals, please let us know!
If you want, you can use the Accessible Japan rental form and I can suggest some places:

Yeah, the video in the middle of the page was good. The top one made me cringe with “wheelchair-bound”. Seriously?!

Hi
It might be easier to rent for your whole trip as I’m not sure you can a) guarantee a chair will be available when you go to get it as I think they are first come first served, b) They might only be available for the day…

As for the wording… who knows! Maybe “wellness cab”?
So… not much luck.
I found this one from Toyota (that may just be a prototype as I have never seen it in the wild) where the seat becomes a wheelchair… since you can’t just go everywhere in a car seat, I assume that this means it is designed for day trips…

Gotcha.
Yeah, very rare to the point of wondering if they exist – I’m not sure I have ever seen one!
Will look around (though, just a warning – I’m not a car person!)
