Is there a way to display current or average speed (km/hr) on Charge 5 during exercise?

Nope. And you won't see it in your workout summary in-app, either. There's a Feature Suggestion for that: https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/Add-current-average-and-max-speed-during-exercis... - so add your vote! 🙂

Hello @bigüa and welcome to the Help forum.  When you are using the Exercise app, you see a top, middle and bottom stat.  The top and bottom stat are set for each exercise and you can't change them.  You can tap on the middle stat and scroll through a series of stats.  Fitbit uses pace, not speed with step based activities.  The stats include current and average pace.  Every feature suggestion asking for speed is marked Not Currently Planned.  My advice is learn a few quick conversions.  This is easier with miles.  A 20'00" pace is 3 mph and a 15'00" pace is 4 mph.  Not so easy with kilometers.

 

Bike uses speed.
