1. A method of autonomously controlling a vehicle in a personalized manner, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by a controller onboard the vehicle, ride preference information associated with a user, the ride preference information comprising a user-specific value for a maximum rate of change for an acceleration of the vehicle;
identifying, by the controller, a current vehicle pose;
determining, by the controller, a motion plan for the vehicle along a route based at least in part on the ride preference information, the current vehicle pose, and constraints associated with the route, wherein the motion plan comprises a solution for traversing along the route from the current vehicle pose in a manner that satisfies the constraints and the user-specific value for the maximum rate of change for the acceleration of the vehicle, the user-specific value for the maximum rate of change for the acceleration of the vehicle influencing a rate of vehicle movement resulting from the motion plan; and
operating, by the controller, one or more actuators onboard the vehicle in accordance with the motion plan.

Abstract
Systems and method are provided for controlling a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: obtaining ride preference information associated with a user, identifying a current vehicle pose, determining a motion plan for the vehicle along a route based at least in part on the ride preference information, the current vehicle pose, and vehicle kinematic and dynamic constraints associated with the route, and operating one or more actuators onboard the vehicle in accordance with the motion plan. The user-specific ride preference information influences a rate of vehicle movement resulting from the motion plan.
