Cars are not iPhones though, and emissions control systems aren't slightly different models. In particular, Hong Kong has its own special dual-sim iPhone model that the rest of the world doesn't get. Only Apple knows what they'll do for USB-C, but they have per-Country SKUs for iPhones already so it wouldn't be out of the question.

They still try to have a limited number of SKUs. Suica (Japan) and CMDA (China/US) features are not limited to specific SKUs anymore, and the dual-SIM SKUs are available in India and China, two very large markets.
All new non dual-SIM iPhones have an eSIM too, so they're all technically dual SIM now.
