Rowan Atkinson as "Blackadder"
Blackadder, from the British sitcom of the same name, has a cutting and sarcastic wit which would be ideal for a sat-nav voice.

JEREMY CLARKSON
A Modest Proposal: Jeremy Clarkson for Waze Voice Navigation
Dear Waze Team,
Let’s cut to the chase — Waze is brilliant. But you know what would make it truly exceptional?
Jeremy Clarkson.
Not just as a voice. As a driving philosophy. Imagine:
“Turn left... or don’t. I’m not your mother.”
“Traffic ahead. Caused, presumably, by a Prius.”
“You've arrived. It's no racetrack, but it'll do.”
"In 200 meters Turn left-- unless you drive a beige Volvo. In which case, please stay home"
Clarkson is the voice of speed, sarcasm, and barely-contained road rage — everything a morning commute needs.…5 votes -
Sonic the Hedgehog (Ryan Drummond or Jason Griffith or Roger Craig Smith)
Please consider adding one of the 3 main English voice actors for Sonic the Hedgehog. But me personally would love to hear Jason Griffith’s Sonic the Hedgehog giving me directions.
6 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Ryan Trahan (and Haley) as voice with State Unlock sound effect
You may be familiar with YouTuber Ryan Trahan and his wife Haley traveling all 50 states in 50 days for a St. Jude fundraiser. It would be fun for family road trips to have their voices for navigation as well as a feature that would play their "New State Unlocked" sound effect whenever crossing a state border.

Create a free instruction in case of change of name on a freeway
On a freeway, when the name changes without the direction changing, there is no voice instruction that is appropriate. We can only use a "Continue straight", which we might hear miles earlier.
My suggestion is, inside the Visual instruction, to have a free instruction available, which in this case could be "You are entering on A7". Why in Visual instruction? Precisely to avoid hearing the voice instruction miles earlier. Since the Visual instruction is not subject to propagation, make sure it is useful, which is the case here.

Correct navigation. The system should say "drive ....miles" instead of "drive ... minutes"
for example, when the map shows "19 mi" the voice now says to drive "19 minutes" when it should say drive "19 miles"

Voices
Dear developers, please keep the themed or promotional voices available! The work has already been done and it has already been approved by the users so do not delete the files that we have downloaded already and we like it!
3 votesThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!
Want to try another voice?
Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
Tap Voice & sound.
Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use. -

Apple Car Play Issue
I love the Apple CarPlay feature. The only issue I have is the black search/favorites/voice bar doesn’t disappear as it does in Google maps. It takes up valuable map space. Could you please, in a future update, create a disappearing black bar after map is up? Thank you.
5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Sleep alert
Dimming screen at not noticeable rate over an period and turn to maximum screen brightness. Create a shock to user, remind user to stay awake.
Or simply voice alert to remind sleepy driver.
And make it an option to turn the feature off.

One turns off a street when already on the street. Command should say “ turn off the present street and onto the next.”
Voice command, Example; Driver is driving down Bond Street. Driver makes turn OFF Bond street and ONTO Main Street. Presently Voice says “Turn right or left on Bond. It is annoying.
