Saw this article being shared on the US forums and thought to aggregate it here.

What I'm most excited about and was unclear to me until now was the availability of a heat pump - which looks like we'll be an option for us here in the North.

Power Train & Battery Capacity

• RWD: 58.0 kWh battery with a 125kW rear motor
• RWD: 77.4 kWh battery with a 168kW rear motor
• AWD: 77.4 kWh battery with a 74kW front motor and a 165kW rear motor
• AWD: 77.4 kWh battery with a 160kW front motor and a 270kW rear motor
  • This GT model will be available later in 2022

V2L

• 120V power outlet located in the lower centre of the rear seat (indoor V2L, a Kia-first)
• Exterior V2L, located on the rear passenger side of the vehicle, has an output of 1.9kW and can also support Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging in case of emergency

Interior & Exterior

• A new interpretation of the ‘tiger face’ for the digital era
• Daytime running lights with moving light pattern inspired by electronic pixels
• Intake molding at the base of the front bumper provides an emphasized wide stance
• Clamshell style hood incorporated into the entire fender
• Along the side, voluminous silhouette with sharply integrated contours from hood to spoiler
• Side sill garnish that visually connects the side of the vehicle to the tail lamp
• 3 unique wheel designs for a high-tech look
• Auto flush-type door handles, a first for Kia
• Full LED rear lamps with built-in turn signal function, standard on all models
• Rear spoiler and powered charging door that is camouflaged

Technology

• Panoramic curved display with two connected 12.3-inch displays (cluster and navigation)
• Start button and dial-type Shift by Wire applied in optimal position
• Lean, minimalist structure across a wide cockpit area that is lightweight, simple and full of character
• Unmatched interior console space featuring armrest and large open tray storage, large capacity lid-type glove box and hangers just behind the two front seats
• Seats are slim, lightweight and contemporary and is comprised of robust fabrics using recycled materials equating to 111 water bottles

Safety & Other

• A Kia first, EV6 integrates available Augmented Reality Head Up Display (AR-HUD)iv that matches driving safety-related warnings and driving information about the road or preceding vehicle
  • Turn by turn navigation
  • Lane safety information
  • Front vehicle indicator and safety information
• Integrated infotainment and air conditioning control keys improve the intuitiveness and luxury of the cockpit design and experience
• Active Sound Design (ASD) offers three types of driving sound sources for a truly differentiated motoring experience
• Available Remote Smart Parking Assist (RSPA): remotely park or exit a parking spot from outside of the vehicle
• Available Blind-Spot Avoidance Assist (BCA): Under certain conditions, can detect vehicles traveling in the next lane. When a vehicle is detected in the blind spot, the vehicle brakes the outer wheel under certain conditions to help return the vehicle to its lane
• Driver Attention Warning (DAW)vi: Senses inattentive driving patterns and sends an audible/visual warning to alert the driver
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA): Assists the driver when braking to help prevent a collision or lessen the effects in certain conditions if a vehicle is detected in front. Uses automatic braking to avoid or mitigate an impact
• Other standard iterations of FCA include FCA-Ped (Pedestrian), available FCA-LS (Land-Change Side), available FCA-LO (Lane-Change Oncoming), available FCA-JC (Junction Crossing), FCA-JT (Junction Turning)
• High Beam Assist (HBA): Detects oncoming traffic and automatically switches off the high beam headlights then turns them on once traffic has passed
• Available Highway Driving Assist II (HDA 2)vii: This system is the evolution of HDA and EV6 is the first Kia to have it. This driving convenience system that keeps a set distance from a car in front and centres the vehicle in the lane. HDA2 will additionally assist with lane changes and adjust the lateral position of the car within the lane
• ISLA (Intelligent Speed Limit Assist): Recognizes signs and provides relevant feedback in the cluster and augmented-reality head-up display (AR HUD)
• Navigation Based Smart Cruise Control-Curve (NSCC-C): Leverages the navigation system to lower the vehicle’s speed proactively before upcoming curves in the road
• Available Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist (RCCA): Helps detect most approaching cross traffic when in reverse. When approaching cross traffic is detected, the system alerts the driver and applies the brakes

Hopefully, the US-spec will be exactly the same!
