An electronic route display system, e.g. implemented in a vehicle navigation system, comprises a display screen (37) adapted to display a map image (40) and a display control unit (61) for generating image control signals (82) for displaying the map image (40) on the display screen (37). The display control unit (61) is adapted to process route data (81) which are indicative of a calculated route (51), and is adapted to generate partial image control signals for generating a partial view (42) within the map image (40). The display control unit (61) is further adapted to generate vicinity image control signals for generating a vicinity view (41) within the map image (40) adjacent the partial view (42), wherein the partial view (42) displays map data in greater detail than the vicinity view (41). The display control unit (61) generates the partial view (42) depending on the route data (81), wherein the partial view (42) is generated including at least a portion of the route (51).
