PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle for efficiently reforming heat generated by a fuel reforming apparatus. SOLUTION: The vehicle C comprises an engine 1; and a reformer 20 for reforming the mixed air of hydrocarbon-based fuel and air. The engine 1 is driven by reformed gas generated by the reformer 20. A heat transfer pipe 40 is provided around a reformation reaction section 23 of the reformer 20. Engine cooling water circulating through the engine 1 that is equipment other than the reformer 20 is introduced to the heat transfer pipe 40. As a result, the temperature of the engine cooling water is increased by heat generated at the reformation reaction section 23 in the reformer 20, and the engine 1 is warmed by using the engine cooling water with a temperature increased.
