The Central Nippon Expressway Pass (CEP) offers visitors a way to use the expressways in Central Japan at an inexpensive flat rate. By using an ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) system card provided by authorized rental vehicle companies, you will be able to pay expressway tolls without having to stop at tollgates. The CEP can also be used for expressways that are outside the designated area but require surcharges.
