the displaying the first virtual representation includes changing within the first virtual representation a virtual position of the occupant virtually moving within the first virtual representation in accordance with a real position change of the moving motor vehicle in the real route layout located in front of the motor vehicle; and
while displaying the first virtual representation when the motor vehicle is moving, displaying, using the display device, by overlaying within the first virtual representation, a second virtual environment in form of a second virtual representation of the motor vehicle moving virtually along the real route layout located in front of the moving motor vehicle, so as to reduce or prevent kinetosis experienced by the occupant moving virtually within the first virtual representation in which the occupant moves virtually differently than the moving motor vehicle.
