The vehicle has an evaporator (9) integrated into a muffler (8) by a tailpipe (10). The evaporator is externally attached to the muffler and an end section of the tailpipe. The evaporator is integrated into the tailpipe, and partially replaces the tailpipe. The evaporator is integrated into the muffler installed in an exhaust pipe that extends vertically behind a driver's cab (3). An intermediate wall separates an intake space from an exhaust space in an intake pipe leading into the intake space.
