_________________________

what is 'route'? I don't have a car and I don't know about it exactly.

[Torsten]

A route is an established line of travel or a way you can follow.
A map is a document that contains routes (roads, streets and other geographical information)

Hence you could hardly have route in your car but you can easily have a map in your automobile.
