Abstract: A vehicle automatically engages a transportation security mode responsive to a vehicle location corresponding to a location predefined for engagement of the security mode. The vehicle also determines that the vehicle has begun movement, and that a characteristic of the movement corresponds to a trigger for a security action designated for the location predefined for engagement of the security mode. The vehicle, based on the movement, characteristic, and location predefined for engagement of the security mode, automatically engages the security action.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for preparing electrified vehicles to transfer energy to other structures. Weather related data and/or grid related data may be leveraged for predicting the likelihood of power outage conditions of a grid power source. When power outage conditions are predicted as being likely, the electrified vehicle may automatically enter a readiness state for transferring power to the structure without any time delays once an actual power outage condition occurs. Entering the readiness state may include steps such as waking up the electrified vehicle, initiating communications with electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), completing vehicle pre-checks, precharging certain power transfer system components, etc.
