The following from the G1000 pilots guide for the Beecg G58 suggests you should be seeing direction and speed:

Wind Vector
The wind vector box is displayed in the upper right
corner of the Navigation Map Page and displays wind
direction and speed (in knots). Wind direction is
indicated by a 360 degree pointing arrow.
To enable/disable the wind vector box:
1. With the Navigation Map Page displayed, press
the
MENU key to display the Navigation Map
Page Menu. The cursor flashes on the ‘Map
Setup’ option.
2. Press the
ENT key. The Map Setup Menu is
displayed.
3. Turn the
small FMS knob to select the ‘Map’
group and press the
ENT key.
4. Turn the
large FMS knob to highlight the ‘WIND
VECTOR’ field.
5. Turn the
small FMS knob to select ‘On’ or
‘Off’. Press the
ENT key to accept the selected
option.

6. Press the
FMS knob to return to the Navigation
Map Page.
