It does not have multiple USB Type-C ports, but does have one and it passes power. Use USB 3.1 Type-A for your external drive when it's on the hub, and keep the USB-C to USB-C adapter for when you are traveling without the hub.
I really like this type, but you can find cheaper like this:

I bought a 2016 rMB Friday, and I am absolutely content. Single port really doesn't bother me, I never plug anything in, though I did buy this Satechi dock thing (http://www.amazon.com/Satechi-Type-C-MacBook-12-Inch-Charging/dp/B019PHF9UY?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00) just in case.
Frankly, I'd wait for the Pro refreshes that everyone else is advising you to do, but I LOVED my 11" Air and dreamed of it having a Retina display. The MacBook is the logical progression of this, and I am extremely happy with the outcome. It is fast, small, and beautiful to use.

If third parties can Mac USB type c adapters like this, Apple can make one with two lighting ports.
I use the adapter, it's pricey but does the job well. No complaints from me. I explored other options like the Satechi adapter, which I also own.
It's generally been a disappointing product. I feel it would have been trivial for them to include USB C for charging pass-through, and it has random disconnects. Satechi has promised me a replacement but that only solves the disconnect issue and not the missing charging port.Edit: the Satechi hub doesn't have HDMI, I forgot about that.
Edit 2:
Good news. Satechi has updated their adapter to include USB C now. I'll have to purchase the updated one to see if it works out better for me. It was an ideal form factor but the missing USB C was a problem.

Looks nice, and will get me through the transition.
So, I was looking into reviews of products from this brand and there are some really really bad reviews :( Should I still buy it? Check:

does this one have enough space to be plugged in on the lower port and still have space for the charging cable to be plugged into top one?
