In which country it is happening?
In Japan I guess according to the article

No, it's not. The article you referred embed the tweet where the link within shows: "This service is currently only available in the USA, but more regions will be added soon." You better fact-check the source you refer to.

Also, the news suggests Honda, the automobile manufacturer, is directly in partnership with the payment system, instead, I believe they did not.

Dealer or affiliates is way more approachable to integrate with cryptocurrency payment system, for example, https://www.leessummithonda.com/research/buy-honda-with-crypto.htm. Honda is not a B2C business, so there is no reason they favourably sell their car firsthand to its customers with a cryptocurrency payment option. This is rather exaggerated click-bait news, nothing much.
