Abstract	This study explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming automotive design and development, with a focus on how startups use AI to accelerate innovation and reduce development cycles. It examines key technologies such as machine learning, generative design, computer vision, and digital twins in enhancing prototyping efficiency, safety, and performance. The research highlights how startups leverage agile methodologies and data-driven decision-making to outperform traditional automotive firms. While AI offers significant advantages in cost reduction and design flexibility, challenges related to data quality, cybersecurity, ethics, and organizational resistance remain. The study concludes that AI-driven approaches provide a strong competitive edge but require robust governance and sustainable implementation strategies.
