displaying, on the display, an own-vehicle icon depicting the own vehicle;
receiving, from the one or more sensors, the surrounding environment information of the own vehicle;
displaying, on the display, a first line icon, a second line icon, and a third line icon based on the surrounding environment information, wherein the first line icon, the second line icon, and the third line icon respectively depict the first lane marker, the second lane marker, and the third lane marker, the own-vehicle icon is displayed between the first line icon and the second line icon line icon;
when a lane change of the own vehicle from the own-vehicle traveling lane to the adjacent traveling lane is detected based on the surrounding environment information, shifting a first display position of the first line icon, a second display position of the second line icon, and a third display position of the third line icon in a first direction opposite a second direction in which the own vehicle moved between the own-vehicle traveling lane and the adjacent traveling lane while the own-vehicle icon stays stationary on the display; and
in response shifting the first display position of the first line icon, the second display position of the second line icon, and the third display position of the third line icon in the first direction, displaying, on the display, the own-vehicle icon between the second line icon and the third line icon.

Abstract
A display device for a vehicle includes a surrounding environment recognition unit and a display unit. The display unit displays an own-vehicle icon and line icons on right and left sides of the own-vehicle icon. The line icons correspond to the lane markers of an own-vehicle-traveling lane, and are displayed, with a clearance between them narrowing as is farther away from the own-vehicle icon. The own-vehicle icon is on fixed display. The line icons are on movable display in a lateral direction of a display area, in an opposite direction to a direction of movement of the own vehicle in a direction of a lane width of the own-vehicle-traveling lane.
