• Abstract: Automotive ergonomics is a multidisciplinary domain essential for developing vehicles that promote comfort, safety, and efficiency. This paper presents an integrative literature review, analysing the theoretical foundations, empirical results, and technological trends shaping the field. The biomechanical, anthropometric, and cognitive principles underlying ergonomic design are examined, as well as the impact of environmental factors such as vibration, noise, and thermal comfort. The transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in optimizing human-vehicle interaction is highlighted, with applications ranging from predictive modelling of ideal postures and intelligent seat adjustment to proactive fatigue detection and real-time postural monitoring. It is concluded that the convergence between traditional ergonomics and AI enables the creation of highly personalized and adaptive driving environments, capable of reducing fatigue, preventing injuries, and improving the driver's cognitive performance. For future work, it is recommended to deepen research into personalized simulations with digital twins, develop continuous learning systems, and discuss ethical and privacy aspects related to the use of biometric data.
