wouldn't it be great if they could incorporate the light standards of EVERY country from the outset? Except that many of those are outright contradictory to each other. One country REQUIRES amber fog lamps, others like many US states BAN them outright. Parking lights, rear fog lamps, etc, etc, etc.... you can't please every govt. agency on the planet except by giving them piles of money. I will be shocked if they can sell the same vehicle in every state of the US without some kind of regional regulation messing with the works somewhere. And it's not going to help that every useless paper-pushing beaurocrat on the planet perches their Napoleanic complex at the pinnacle of a motor-vehicle regulations mountain that rivals Mt. Everest, much of which is contradictory to itself, so I certainly wouldn't expect compatability with the neighbor's paper mountain.
And that only touches on LIGHTING issues! Can you imagine trying to get ALL the mechanical systems legal on more than one continent?
There is a reason they make export and domestic varients of vehicles.
