There are some string resources in recent update files with words ‘Text to Speech’, which may indicate they are working on such a feature. And while Speak Screen screen reader has been there for several years, it isn’t that pleasant to use unless you really need it. And SS/TTS should support some languages other than English.

Immersion Reading feature would make them more money via audiobook sales, even if playback just synchronized page turns without the highlighting one gets with the Kindle apps.
