Abstract
This disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for generating a customized display in a vehicle. The customized display may be generated on the basis of various factors such as a reason for executing a trip, a preferred travel model, and/or operating parameters of the vehicle. A few exemplary reasons for executing a trip can include taking a vacation, delivering a package, dropping off a passenger, dining out, going to work, a fuel fill up, and/or for charging a battery. A computer may utilize such reasons to identify objects of interest in a geographical area surrounding the vehicle when the vehicle is executing the trip and generate a customized display that includes these objects. For example, when the reason for executing the trip is a vacation, the objects in the customized display may include a tourist attraction, a landmark, a fueling station, an electric charging station, and/or a restaurant.
