No. It's not Japanese but, an American luxury SUV. You can use the side mirror and the vent (this vent style can also be seen on cars of that particular make) on the side of the hood as hints.
I was wondering whether if it was a Suzuki sx4 sedan because, it had a similar side glass on the back door but, the front side door had a different curve.
