On my previous 2019 HRV Sat Nav, speed limits for the roads you are on are shown.
However on the 2023/24 HRV Sat nave there are no speed limits shown on the Sat Nav. Is there a way of perhaps turning this on or are they just not able to be shown?

As far as I remember from my 21 reg HR-V the answer is NO! It annoyed me as well!

Speed limits in the sat-navs are not always up-to-date. Not providing the info reduces a speeding driver's defence that "the sat-nav" showed this to be an xxmph road". The speed signs displayed by the dashboard are those recognised by the car's camera (and are subject to clean and visable signs and the vehicle not reading the wrong signs). In the absence of repeater signs sufficient to avoid the display showing "- -" means that the general rules apply which, IIRC, of street lights then 30mph, single carriageway road 60mph and dual carriageway/motorway = 70mph. Nonetheless I've been on good roads with street lights with insufficient repeater signs to tell me or the car that they are 40mph and not 30mph. In such circumstances the sat-nav speed limit display, if available, provides a 3rd opinion.
