1. A vehicle, comprising:
a first set of sensors to sense an environment surrounding the vehicle;
a second set of sensors to sense an activity of an occupant in the vehicle;
a third set of sensors to sense a state of the vehicle;
a vehicle control system for autonomously controlling driving functions of the vehicle;
a navigation system in communication with the first, second, and third sets of sensors and the vehicle control system, to provide a selected route to the vehicle control system for autonomously controlling the vehicle along the selected route; and
a processor in communication with the first, second, and third sets of sensors, the navigation system, and the vehicle control system, the processor:
receiving static route characteristics that are not anticipated to change for each of the two or more routes;
receiving dynamic route characteristics that change for each of the two or more routes;
selecting a level of autonomy, from among a plurality of levels of autonomy, based on the sensed activity of the occupant;
selecting, based on the static route characteristics, the dynamic route characteristics, and occupant route preferences for each of the two or more routes, a route of the two or more routes that best fits the selected level of autonomy, the sensed environment surrounding the vehicle, and the sensed state of the vehicle; and
providing the selected route to the navigation system.
