Systems and method are provided for controlling a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method for selecting a driving mode for a vehicle includes receiving occupant preference information indicative of whether an occupant prefers that the vehicle operating in a driving mode (e.g., a sport mode), receiving a set of vehicle state parameters indicative of whether the operational state of the vehicle is conducive to the driving mode, and receiving a set of occupant state parameters indicative of the state of one or more occupants of the vehicle. The method further includes selecting a driving mode based on the occupant preference information, the set of vehicle state parameters, and the occupant state parameters, and then engaging vehicle tuning parameters for the vehicle based on the selected driving mode.
