A vehicle vaporizer includes an elongated case having a plug at its distal end, the plug being adapted to be received in the socket of a vehicle cigarette lighter, and a tray receptacle in its proximal end, the tray receptacle having an opening at the proximal end of the case. A tray received in the tray receptacle for movement axially of the case is adapted to support a porous pad impregnated with a vaporizable substance and is movable out of the tray receptacle through the opening for manual replacement of a pad on the tray and into the tray receptacle for operation. An electrical resistance heating element is electrically connected to terminals on the plug for energization by the vehicle cigarette lighter and is positioned in the case adjacent the tray receptacle. Ventilation openings in portions of the case on opposite sides of the tray receptacle and in the tray enable conduction of a thermally induced flow of ambient air through a pad received on the tray by the heating element so as to transport vapor from the pad into the vehicle.
