your car probably is warming up. if you're concerned about it, it might be a good idea to take it to the dealer, assuming your still covered.

Where are you from?
If it is in a hot country like my it should not do that.
also if it dose that every day, I would take it to the dealer and have it checked out.
my car is 4 years old now and still starting smoothly, no shake

Is it the engine you feel shaking, or do you have a shaky drive the first miles?
If the latter is the case, it could be your run flat tyres, they need to round up again the first miles.........

Get it to the dealers at once.

No one should have that problem, in any temperature.

I have started up cars from minus 40 to plus 40 Celsius without any shaking problem.
(But in -40 C it's good to idle the car for a while before driving).
